SportsTech data and AI technology company, Stats Perform, has signed a partnership with Live Graphic Systems (LIGR), in a bid to transform the delivery of statistical broadcast graphics for sports leagues.
The partnership comes after more than three years of cooperative projects between Stats Perform and LIGR, including customers like Gravity Media, Cricket Australia, Football NSW and Queensland Rugby League.
The new deal brings together Stats Perform’s industry-leading event and tracking data expertise with LIGR’s live sports broadcast graphics platform.
Joint customers can also use LIGR’s automatic graphics mode, which uses Stats Perform’s data to completely automate an entire game’s broadcast graphics, removing the requirement for a traditional broadcast graphics operator, all rendering in the cloud, and optimal for a large volume of remote productions.
Luke McCoy, LIGR’s co-founder and CEO, said: “With Stats Perform’s world-class data and advanced storytelling resources, sports broadcasters and leagues will be able to utilise LIGR’s platform to produce large volumes of data-enriched broadcast experiences with world-class graphics in a streamlined, cost-efficient production workflow.”
Wayne Ford, Stats Perform senior vice president of global partners and channels, said: “LIGR’s intelligent, out-of-the-box broadcast graphic tools integrate Stats Perform’s advanced event and tracking data to deliver a sleek, easy-to-use tool that also makes overlaying advertising easy, generating new sponsorship revenue for our customers.”
