Abstract
Chapter 4 presents an overview of player tracking systems. These systems facilitate the monitoring of human player activity within competition. Compared to manual systems, player tracking technologies benefit players and coaches, offering the key advantages of reduced time and expense, and improved sporting performance. Burkett also highlights that these systems satisfy the demand from media, referees and spectators to know what is happening in a game.
