Live baseball prediction data prototype
A live baseball prototype let fans contribute predictions while testing a new way to collect match data.
The objective
The proof of concept explored whether Korean baseball audiences would contribute useful data while following live matches.
The experience
Fans predict where a batter will hit and compare their choices with live games.
The responsive HTML5 client combines crowd input with SportsRadar data and Firebase services.
The results
The prototype paired fan predictions with official match data in front of a real audience.
The client gained a working assessment of whether gamified input could produce usable match statistics before investing in a full product.
