Sportsbox AI, an AI-powered technology company that brings 3D AI Coaching to mobile applications, is delighted to announce that Randi Zuckerberg, an entrepreneur, investor, bestselling author and award-winning producer, has invested. She will also be involved as an advisor.
“As an entrepreneur, investor, and advisor to numerous startups, Randi has an incredible vantage point and insight into building successful businesses," said CEO and Founder Jeehae Lee. "We are thrilled to have Randi as an investor and advisor to help us build Sportsbox into a global leader in sports performance technology.”
Zuckerberg has dubbed herself "a professional mom” to entrepreneurs and takes great pleasure in working closely with startups and founders. She currently works with numerous early and mid-stage companies as an investor and advisor and is delighted about adding Sportsbox AI to her portfolio.
“Sportsbox AI brings together many of my passions - technology, media, female entrepreneurs, and golf," said Zuckerberg. "As a new golfer who is obsessed with bettering my game, I know how painful it is to try to improve technique. I love that Sportsbox helps me understand what I need to change in my swing in degrees and inches and leaves nothing to ambiguous instruction.
"This technology is going to be a game-changer for golf and many other sports and I am proud to support Jeehae and her team in their journey as an investor.”
With Sportsbox Golf, coaches and golfers have the ability to take a single 2D video from a mobile phone -- with no markers and sensors -- and turn it into a full 3D avatar that can be viewed from six different angles, as well as provide 3D biomechanical measurements in inches, degrees, linear and angular velocities. The app enables golfers to:
- 3D Motion Capture: Use of a mobile phone camera to create a detailed 3D model of an athletic motion from a single 2D video -- without any markers using over 30 key points
- Highly Accurate 3D Kinematic Measurements: Kinematic parameters and sequences relevant to measuring and analyzing the body movement in sports - in full 3D
- Learns Each User’s Ideal Motion: Learns the kinematic parameters and sequences that will result in the best outcome for each user
- Seamless Coaching Live and Remote: 3D data and visualization tools whether you’re with the student or remote; communication, CRM, and payment tools, as well as video editing tools for visually impactful lesson notes integrated for an all-in-one coaching platform
- Drills and Guided Personalized Practice Plan to Improve Your Outcome Goal(s): Guided practice and training roadmap tailored to your needs and goals
Sportsbox plans to work with a broad spectrum of elite instructors who believe in the power of 3D measurements -- agnostic to swing methodology. The AI Coach will be built using the data collected on what creates optimal outcomes for different golfers based on their skill level and biomechanics.
