N2 - Recent years have brought an increasing interest on analyzing efficiently the performance of sports players during training sessions and games. The information collected from such analysis is very valuable to educators and coaches since it allows them to better understand the difficulties of a trainee, a player or even an entire team and formulate adequate training and strategic plans accordingly. In order to perform this analysis in a consistent and systematic way, sophisticated sensory systems and data processing techniques are needed. This paper presents a survey on relevant work, current techniques and trends on the area of team tracking systems applied to sports. We propose a classification of these systems by distinguishing them into two main categories: intrusive and nonintrusive. Nonintrusive systems are further refined into outdoor and indoor sports applications. The specific characteristics of each system are itemized, including the identification of the strong points and limitations. Finally, the paper highlights some open issues and research opportunities on this area.
