Currently, four units are installed and in operation at two locations, including the tennis courts in Maeheon Citizens' Forest and the soccer field in Yangjae Neighborhood Park. The district plans to install seven additional units at two more locations, including the tennis courts at Banpo Sports Complex and Naegok Sports Facilities, by the 24th.

The AI sports cameras are fixed to the upper part of the facilities and automatically film training sessions and practice matches. The recorded footage can be watched in real time and replayed through a dedicated app. Sport-specific analysis features are also provided.

For soccer, highlight videos are automatically generated after the match. For tennis, the service provides personalized analysis, including ball speed, landing point, swing technique, and hitting points on the court, helping to improve performance.

The method of use is simple. Users can start and stop recording by scanning a QR code inside the facility, and filming is possible for up to two hours. Before recording, users must agree to portrait rights and copyright terms, and can directly set the viewing scope to themselves only, their club, or all users.

Seocho District Mayor Jeon Seong-su said, "True to Seocho's status as an AI special zone, we will continue to discover sports-for-all services that utilize smart technology and build a smart daily sports environment that residents can feel in their everyday lives."
