So we can now collect, if you have cameras, you can collect data directly from the video that we get from cameras.
So that's been another big jump.
So that means that we can start getting data.
I mean, we don't have units on our, for example, we're playing Paraguay, Australia, and Turkey in the group stage.
We don't have the data from those units that the players are wearing, but we have the video broadcast.
So we can send those to a data company and get the data from those video broadcasts.
Well, they would have the exact same thing.
Our video broadcasts, they would have.
The data that's on the player while you don't have it, is that โ No, so we won't share with direct opponents, but who we do share our data with is the clubs.
So a big part of being part of a national team is that you have the players for a short period of time.
So we always say these players aren't ours, right?
These players, they play for the clubs.
That's how they make the majority of their salary.
Sporting Kansas City, Columbus Crew, AC Milan.
But we want to make sure that we're doing what's best for the players when we have them.
And so the clubs have all been really helpful and they'll share that data with us on the player that we're getting so we understand, okay, how much have they run in the past three weeks?
How can we make sure that we're going to put them in a situation to succeed?
We're not putting them at risk of injury in our environment.
