[REGIONGRAPH]
By region, North America dominated the market share in 2022 for the artificial intelligence in sports market analysis. The presence of prominent players such as Microsoft Corporation, IBM Corporation and others is positively influencing the growth of artificial intelligence in sports market in this region. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to exhibit the highest growth during the forecast period. This is attributed to the increase in integration of digital technologies and higher adoption of advanced technology, which is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities for the market in this region.
Emerging technologies such as AI, big data, and IoT, are becoming essential components of sport in recent years, and are being used on a regular basis, especially in team sports for various applications such as monitoring movement patterns, which reveal important results regarding sport performance. In addition, AI analytics helps to quantify these results and the dynamic profile of players using global positioning systems (GPS). These devices have been defined as a valid tool for evaluating the external load in intermittent sports, with capacity to record real-time data about time, speed, distance, position, altitude, and direction, which make them common in the analysis of team sports.
Furthermore, the technology of a multiple-camera match analysis system, implemented in almost all European professional leagues and international competitions, has been demonstrated to be as reliable as GPS; it can obtain results in quantification with less than 5% of error, and has been proven valid for investigation. Thus, the increase in use of these systems for physical and tactical performance studies in different elite competitions drives the growth of the global market. Therefore, artificial intelligence in sports gained wider traction among end-users, which in turn, is expected to fuel robust market growth.
The major challenge for the growth of global artificial intelligence in sports market is the limitation of skilled labor and knowledge of AI infrastructure. Smart AI devices consist of complex installation and connectivity management, which requires knowledge and decision-making skills. The increasing dearth of sophisticated abilities and a growing lack of awareness of digital technology is certainly restraining the adoption of artificial intelligence in sports across the globe. Further, the integration of highly sophisticated technologies and components to provide efficient, reliable, and safe services is expected to propel the global market growth.
However, these sophisticated technologies and equipment include difficult design, development, and implementation of digitalized systems, which is expected to be the major restraining factor for the growth of the global market. In addition, these technically advanced systems entail a combination of electronic components and several subsystems to offer real-time data. However, individuals with limited skillsets and software knowledge in installing and developing such complex infrastructure are expected to be the major obstacles to this market growth across the globe. Therefore, a lack of skilled labor and management is required for the installation and development of digital technologies in AI devices and thus, is projected to hamper to this the market growth across the globe.
Advancements in the field of predictive analytics have led to the creation of predictive models that can compute probabilities of sports win/loss prospects and analyze the performance of players. AI is projected to increase the competitiveness in sports by a huge margin. With better sensors and algorithms, it will make better predictions of outcomes of competitions. AI is expected to impact advertisers, sports companies, franchise owners, coaches, as well as game strategists by helping target population and using contextual advertising and behavioral targeting to get the right advertisements in front of the right people. With such a wide scope of implementation, it is expected that the sports industry will adopt AI to gain a competitive edge over sports industry rivals.
Moreover, predictive analytics is being used for evaluating athletes, as it is crucial to look at how the player is performing in different phases. This is further used to determine the success of the athlete in sports depending on the player's skill and is associated with the team and nation of the athlete. These factors are encouraging many businesses to enhance their product portfolio in the global market. For instance, in December 2023, Humane launched AI Pin with unique artificial intelligence features. Ai Pin is a wearable gadget activated by voice command, conveying information to the user through its AI chatbot. Therefore, an increase in applications of predictive analytics is expected to provide lucrative opportunity for the growth of the AI in sports industry market.
