codeNforcer: Source Code Analysis Tool
Code review is a great way to reduce software defects at an early stage, mentor new developers, and improve collaboration. But, on the other hand, it is a burdensome and expensive procedure that requires a lot of specialists and may result in errors.Automated code analysis tools are a good alternative to tedious manual code debugging. They can help reduce the burden on developers, lower overall costs, speed up the software development life cycle by quickly identifying bugs and defects that can not be detected during traditional testing.
Online Training Platform
Digital transformation is reshaping the education landscape. Today, students' expectations are moving toward more personalized, highly interactive, and convenient experiences.As a result, the requirements for classrooms are also changing. A modern classroom should be equipped with computers and other digital tools to make learning highly interactive, uninterrupted, and convenient for both learners and teachers.
Axis: Virtual Lab Management Application
The pandemic moved education around the world online. Despite the wide variety of tools and technologies available, many educational institutions failed to organize distance learning quickly and effectively. The fact is that most cloud platforms are not designed for this purpose: they are hard to use and provide too many excessive features.Therefore, there is an urgent need for a system with an easy-to-understand interface that would make the interaction between cloud service providers and educators easier and more effective.
Web-Based Hiring Application
Technology has changed the face of every industry. And recruitment is no exception. The traditional hiring methods have long been replaced by various programs and online recruitment platforms. They allow recruiters to automate routine tasks, reduce administrative work, reach a wider range of potential employees, find better-suited candidates with minimal effort, and much more.Our Customer, an international legal recruitment agency, needed to upgrade the existing hiring application with new features to streamline the traditional recruitment process and meet the needs of digitally-savvy clients.
Sports Statistics Application
Every coach and team owner knows, that the key to success is always players. The better players you have, the bigger your chances to win are. Therefore, the search for the most gifted ones is the main challenge of the sports business industry.Team sports have lived through two eras. During the first one, a player's value was based on his popularity: the better a player performed, the more popularity they gained, and the higher their price got. And, of course, not every team could afford to buy them.
Online Conferencing Software
The times when a blackboard and a piece of chalk were enough for a lecture are long gone. With the advent of technology, teachers began to use first slide projectors and then multimedia presentations.However, today these tools are no longer effective enough. In the age of IT and increasing digitalization, lecturers often need to share the desktop with students in real time to make the learning process more engaging, keep an audience on the same page, improve communication and eliminate the need for students to download digital study material prior to or during lectures.

Challenge

Every coach and team owner knows, that the key to success is always players. The better players you have, the bigger your chances to win are. Therefore, the search for the most gifted ones is the main challenge of the sports business industry.

Team sports have lived through two eras. During the first one, a player’s value was based on his popularity: the better a player performed, the more popularity they gained, and the higher their price got. And, of course, not every team could afford to buy them.

The second era marked the emergence of scouts and sports statistics. Back then, a player’s value was judged not by their popularity, because popularity is a shaky thing, but by a bunch of statistical parameters. Scouts would spend hours and days making complex measurements and calculations, sifting for ‘gold’.

And we are living in a new era. Today, all calculations are done using computer algorithms. And the better the algorithms you use, the bigger your chances of success are.

Solution

Softarex has developed a Sports Statistics Application*. It’s a desktop app that embraces the existing estimation methodologies, formulas, rates, and parameters, and powers them with cutting-edge computer vision algorithms.

Even though it might sound like a complex tool, it’s easy to use for both newbies and tech-savvy users due to its simple, intuitive interface.

Softarex’s Sports Statistics Application allows users to work with athletes’ training recordings and receive all the required parameters automatically, using the following features:

  • Video management — the user can upload all necessary videos and related background info, and easily adjust the video playback speed based on their needs.
  • Scene selection — instead of processing the whole video, the user can select only the parts they are interested in.
  • Video processing — all user-selected video parts are automatically processed by the application using player recognition algorithms to determine the size and position of the player’s body parts, the necessary angles, and rotations. After that, the collected data is processed and transformed into detailed statistics.
  • Frame selection — after the selected scenes were processed and measures were achieved, the user can browse through the frames in search of the best shots, which provides the most complete picture of the player’s technical skills. The user can mark the most useful frames and include them in a table.
  • Results export — after all the achieved results are checked and preferred frames are selected, the user can export the data to an Excel file.
