Catapult Combines Indoor/Outdoor Tracking, Heart-Rate Monitoring in Vector Wearable

NFL and college football teams often toggle practice between their indoor facilities and outdoor fields all in the same session. Global soccer clubs may practice on a sprawling complex of grass fields but compete within the confines of high-walled, mass-capacity stadiums. In both cases, a wearable tracking device might work in one situation or the other but never both.

That was the problem Catapult Sports sought to solve with its new line of elite wearables, Vector. The Catapult Vector is the first to combine communication with satellite navigation for outdoor tracking and ultra-wideband capabilities for indoor use.
