Under the leadership of Steven Verstockt and in collaboration with the Sports Data Science team of IDLab (UGent - UAntwerpen - imec), the Pro League, and Securitas, i4S is developing innovative solutions to enhance safety in and around stadiums.
The GOTCHA project – funded by the Football Safety Service of the Belgian Federal Public Service Interior – focuses on automatically tracing the origin of thrown objects. This initiative helps clubs take targeted action and contributes to a safer stadium experience.
