Products
Catapult hosts an integrated ecosystem of wearable performance technologies, positioning systems, video analysis tools and software platforms used by professional, collegiate, and amateur sports teams to monitor athlete performance, support coaching workflows and inform tactical decisions.

Wearable performance technology
Catapult’s wearable devices collect athlete tracking data such as speed, acceleration, distance, workload and physiological metrics. These devices are typically worn in performance vests or as standalone GPS pods. The Vector series, including models such as Vector S7, T6, T7 and S8 represents the company’s flagship professional tracking hardware. S8 being the most recent product release, uses advanced wearables and real-time data to give coaches faster, live insights and streamlined analysis for smarter performance decisions. Additional wearable products include solutions targeted at different competitive levels and sports needs, such as Catapult One. The Catapult One software is a coach-led performance platform that provides team-wide access to athlete training data. Catapult GPS products are not available for individual athlete use.
Local positioning systems
ClearSky is Catapult’s proprietary local positioning system (LPS), developed with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), providing high-resolution indoor and stadium-scale tracking where GPS is limited.

Video analysis and performance software
Catapult’s video analysis products support capture, tagging, review, and tactical evaluation of game and practice footage:
MatchTracker is a video and data analytics platform that enables teams to integrate athlete performance metrics with multi-angle video for pre-match strategy, in-game insight, and post-match analysis.
Catapult Pro Video is the overarching suite that includes MatchTracker, Focus (capture and multi-camera recording), Hub (sharing and collaboration), and presentation tools.
Thunder (formerly XOS Digital) is a professional video analysis platform tailored to sports such as American football and ice hockey, providing comprehensive clip editing, organization, and workflow tools.
These video solutions can be used independently or in combination with wearable tracking data to contextualize physical performance within tactical frameworks.
Sports science and education
Through its acquisition of Science for Sport, Catapult provides a sports science content and education platform offering research summaries, courses and materials for coaches, practitioners, and sports scientists. This extends Catapult’s offerings beyond hardware and software into knowledge and community resources supporting best practices in performance and conditioning.

Integrated performance ecosystem
Catapult’s strategy has evolved toward a unified performance intelligence ecosystem that brings together wearable monitoring, video analysis, tactical data and educational content into a coherent platform for teams across professional and amateur sport. Recent integrations aim to seamlessly connect data across products and enhance insight generation for training, competition, scouting, and player development. :

Not done Imogenh16 This request is too promotional, written like a catalog advertisement. Marketing phrases like contextualize physical performance within tactical frameworks and unified performance intelligence ecosystem are jarring to read in an encyclopedia. Even more so, none of the sources are independent. They are all pages controlled by the company. Please see Wikipedia:Reliable sources for a better understanding of what kinds of sources you need to use. If you can tone the promotionalism down, and use good, independent sources for the content you want to add, you can try again. STEMinfo (talk) 04:51, 25 March 2026 (UTC)
