Today, video capture, replay, analysis and broadcasting solutions are commonplace in the highest levels of sport. But for those further down the pyramid, affordability continues to put the most impactful solutions out of many teams, organizations and media rights holders’ league. Instead, they must settle for systems that offer limited quality and usability.

At Spiideo, we’re determined to level the playing field and provide the entire sports industry with access to elite footage and features. As part of this mission, we’ve expanded our playbook by adding a new, cost-effective camera to our line-up of flexible sports capture technology: The Spiideo A-Line.

Lowering the bar when it comes to accessing high-quality video solutions, the new Spiideo A-Line camera system unlocks the full power of Spiideo at a cost-effective price for every level of sports.

For media companies, it offers an opportunity to scale. With a cost-effective yet premium camera solution, combined with Spiideo’s autonomous and event-driven production tools, streaming the lower tiers of sport is no longer prohibited by limited viewership and revenue. Suddenly, it’s a major investment opportunity for media rights holders that deploy Spiideo’s automated — and more affordable — camera system at scale.

For teams, it will enable limited budgets to access tools and features that were previously unavailable, and leaves the field open for existing customers to add additional cameras to their setups, delivering Spiideo’s unique seamless multi-angle capture in a single recording.

The new Spiideo A-Line is as much as 44% cheaper than comparable camera solutions. But lower cost doesn’t mean lower quality. Punching beyond its weight, the Spiideo A-Line gives all other AI sports capture solutions a serious run for their money.

The adjustable, weatherproof system can be fixed anywhere from three to 20 meters away from the sideline, and offers 30/25 FPS, and a 180-degree field of view, capturing a panoramic view of every action that occurs across the field of play.

Like all Spiideo camera systems, the Spiideo A-line is equipped with the industry-leading player tracking technology, AutoFollow, uniquely developed to offer AutoFollow designed for all major sports. It always keeps the focus on the most interesting area of play continuously without any human assistance, autonomously recording every moment while offering a more budget-friendly alternative. The AI-driven camera is always ready to track the action, whether scheduled in advance or from a simple push of a button in the app.
