Snapper is Webbsoft’s performance analysis software solution. By combining high quality video with a powerful database, Snapper allows the logging and retrieval of virtually anything you consider important.
Developed in association with the Victorian Institute of Sport, Snapper's benefits have been recognized and adopted by leading sports organizations, schools and universities, both in Australia and internationally.
Snapper’s superiority lies in its ability to be user configurable for almost any activity. Whether it be sporting matches, drama productions or teacher/ student interaction, you define precisely what information to collect.
For example, you may wish to log all the “Shots” within a game. You could define criteria for “who shot it”, “the type of shot”, “the direction of the shot”, “the decision to shoot” and so on... You can record as much or as little information as you like.
Once a structure is defined, it can be used as a template for future projects. Whether your focus is statistics, decision making or simply compiling video clips, Snapper is the comprehensive performance analysis solution.

Individual Sports

Team Sports |
| Snapper's extensive range of features provides the coach or teacher
with the ability to quickly and easily perform in-depth analysis. |
|
| Entering Event Data |
Quick & Easy In-Depth Logging |
Once the event types are defined, the logging window allows
quick and easy entering of data. Button colour and
order
can be customised to suit the way you work! More... |
Importing Data |
| Snapper also has the capability of importing
data from other applications, such as real time stats gathering programs designed
for
PDAs. This eliminates
the need to re-enter data. There is a Webbsoft specification which defines
the format of the XML data file used to import the data into Snapper. Please contact us for further information on how this can
be achieved. |
|
| Core Analysis features |
Filtering or searching Events |
Event data can easily be filtered using simple or detailed criteria.
For example, in basketball you could
search
for every successful shot, from inside the key, made by a
specific player. More... |
Spreadsheet Statistics |
A Spreadsheet Grid allows you to set up a data matrix consisting
of events, players, teams and calculated statistics.
From a grid cell you can easily display the associated
video. For example, the number of shots a specific player
has had. A grid will also update as events are logged,
providing live statistical information! More... |
PlayLists |
A PlayList allows you to collect and arrange whatever events
you are interested in. For example, a coach may drag
10 events into a PlayList to present to a particular
player or group. Grid data can also be dragged into a
PlayList. PlayLists can be exported as small data files
that can be transferred to another Snapper user. More... |
Graphics & Text |
Graphics can be drawn on the video window to highlight important
points. This allows a coach to graphically communicate
strategies
and tactics. More... |
2 Video Windows & Synchronisation |
Events can be displayed in a second video window. When playing,
these two windows can be synchronised in order to compare
two different instances of the same event type within
a game. More... |
Secondary Video Display |
Enhance your coaching message by outputting the video to
a second monitor or screen for your audience, whilst
retaining full Snapper functionality on your computer. More... |
Exporting Events & Projects |
| Events can be exported as video files for further analysis
or distribution to players. Using SnapperPlayer, the
entire game can be taken away and reviewed on a player's
own computer. You can also import grids and searches
into other projects to save time. |
Full Screen Video |
| Watch any event in full screen mode to get the big picture! |
Exporting & Printing Data |
| Print Event lists, grids and search data or export it to Excel
for further analysis. |
Create Templates |
Once a project setup has been defined, you can create a Template of it from which to base future projects. This is great for maintaining logging consistency across a season. |
Distribute |
Export video on CD to give to your clients, players or students
to review in their own time. |
|
| Additional features |
Easily manage Player and Team information
Automate video capture using the event logging buttons

snapper net server & snapper net client |
