Amazon Uses AI to Enhance Football Viewing Experience on Prime Video

Amazon Prime Video collaborated with its CVML team in Tel Aviv to find new ways to help fans understand football better using AI.
The new "Defensive Alerts" feature uses AI to identify players most likely to blitz the QB based on tracking data.
The alerts are powered by a neural network trained on nearly 35,000 plays and NFL Next Gen Stats data.
Other new features will highlight receivers' routes, open receivers, and kickers' FG chances.
Prime Vision will serve as an incubator to test new sports tech like computer vision and machine learning.
