About
Ball laboratory (IIS Ballab) is equipped with various analysis software installed in either Windows or MacOS based hardware on several desktop and laptop computers.
In addition to live analysis of TV broadcasts and pre-recorded video material, it is possible to analyze images and sound recorded automatically from our artificial turf football field and two other sports halls. Laboratory is therefore well equipped for flexible, effective and educationally correct solutions for recording, editing, analyzing and presenting video material from various video sources - which is the best possible fit for teaching, coaching and research related to ball sports, as well as leasing for relevant course activities. In the teaching and coaching on the football pitch, for example, a cloud-based automated video recording and analysis solution can be used which makes it possible to tag situations live by using an iPad and/or iWatch and then be able to show the situation in a replay just minutes later on the practice field.
With this technology, you can give immediate feedback to both coaches and players without major delays, which is unique from a college perspective. Ball laboratory is also used by the coaching students for necessary follow-up work, and presentations of their analyzes for the students who led and those who participated in the session on the football pitch.
The method provides good learning, both for those who analyze, those who are analyzed and the other students who take part in the training. In addition to the traditional technical-tactical research questions by using new and more holistic research methods, this laboratory supports exciting research topics and questions (see under Research below). In addition to teaching, coaching and research, the ball laboratory has been used to carry out statistics and analysis assignments for external clients.
The laboratory has had joint projects and close cooperation with football teams from both the domestic elite series and the Premier League in England, as well as the Norwegian Football Association (NFF) and the Norwegian Football Coaches Association (NFT). This laboratory has also been used by the Norwegian Football Association in connection with the training of coaches.
