President Kim Doh-Yeon and the president of the Korea Football Association (KFA), Chung Mong-gyu, agreed on a three-year cooperative relationship on Apr. 12. Both institutions will cooperate to strengthen the squad using high technology. They will also work together to vitalize the football industry through methods such as unmanned camera relay or education with deep learning technology. President Kim said, “Since football is a culture, an industry and an index of national competitiveness, there is a lot for science and technology to contribute." Kim Young-seok, a professor of Sports Engineering Institute in POSTECH i-Lab said, “We are planning to analyze players’ patterns and athletic performance through big data analysis. Using data obtained from ergonomic wearable devices connected to cloud platforms, we will contribute to the development of the players’ condition and athletic performance.”
