Abstract:Football (or Soccer)1 matches are often analysed from 2D video footage that lacks any spatial details of the players on the pitch. On the other hand, the real-time positions of the players derived from recorded tracking data are not easily understandable without an immersive and effective visualisation of the players located on a pitch with the ability of the system to review actions over a timeline. To address some of these drawbacks, we propose a novel "Believable Agent Behaviour"(BAB) engine, based on virtual reality equipped with artificial intelligence for the generation of realistic virtual agent animations to enact the data-driven events from football matches. This system implements an immersive, interactive, believable, and automated end-to-end simulation to analyse and replay a football match using immersive 3D graphics.
