Audience award for our colleague

Sport and computer science don't really go together? On the contrary! The conference Spinfortec2020 brought those two disciplines together, and featured a talk given by one of our colleagues, Marc Schuh, who is on the one hand a competitive athlete, and on the other a computer scientist. He presented one of the TNG Innovation Hacking Team's exciting projects at this year's iteration of the conference, in which he explained how the technical analysis for professional athletes, supported by video, can be enhanced and automated with computer vision and artificial intelligence.

The talk was so well received by the participants that Marc won the audience award, and moreover by a significant margin. We are pleased and proud to celebrate his distinction and are grateful to our partner, the Olympiastützpunkt Metropolregion Rhein-Neckar for their support in this fascinating project.
