IBM’s team walks through a hands-on demo that tracks a tabletop game using computer vision to extract trajectories, events and player behavior, then feeds those signals into APIs and language models for analysis. The point is not the game itself but the data pipeline: detection, feature engineering, inference, and presentation layered on top of IBM’s watsonx platform. https://www.ibm.com/watsonx/

HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

Filmed at Web Summit Lisbon 2025, the booth leans into the “AI Sports Club” theme. Multi-camera image recognition and pose estimation stream into real-time dashboards, while watsonx.ai, watsonx.data and watsonx.governance address model selection, vector retrieval, secure data access and lifecycle risk controls. The flow resembles production MLOps: data collection, RAG over structured and unstructured logs, model orchestration, evaluation, and human-in-the-loop review to keep output grounded
One concrete case is Sevilla FC’s Scout Advisor, built on watsonx and using large language models to query player performance corpora in natural language. It fuses match reports, tracking statistics and contractual constraints, letting scouts ask questions like “left-back options with high progressive carries and aerial win rate under X salary cap,” then returns candidates with traceable justifications. The club has discussed using Meta’s Llama 3.1 with watsonx for the NLP layer and governance
Another reference is Scuderia Ferrari’s reworked fan app, where telemetry and historic race data power a Race Centre with AI-generated recaps, driver insights and interactive features. The demo surfaces acceleration profiles, top speed and G-force metrics, translating raw signals into narratives for millions of users. It’s an illustration of model-assisted summarization and data visualization over event streams from motorsport systems rather than a pure gaming gimmick
IBM also points to Wimbledon, where watsonx agents support real-time features like chat-style match context and automated insights that complement editorial teams. Around the booth, the conversation shifts to post-event lead handling and regional partner follow-ups, sketching how these AI building blocks—computer vision, RAG, orchestration, evaluation and governance—travel from a playful demo to regulated, production workloads in sports tech and beyond
I filmed 70+ videos at Web Summit Lisbon 2025 I will publish them over the coming days/weeks into my Web Summit playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7xXqJFxvYvhGWhynTmvAvDvohtO3qjZm I publish one video (from this and from other events I recently filmed at) every 6 hours at 5AM/11AM/5PM/11PM CET/EST. Be a member on my https://youtube.com/charbax/join to get early access to all my videos (after they’ve been queued up for publishing)
This video was filmed using the DJI Pocket 3 ($669 at https://amzn.to/4aMpKIC using the dual wireless DJI Mic 2 microphones with the DJI lapel microphone https://amzn.to/3XIj3l8 ), watch all my DJI Pocket 3 videos here https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7xXqJFxvYvhDlWIAxm_pR9dp7ArSkhKK
