How football clubs are using VIRTUAL REALITY - Dr Ben Greenhough #57 In this episode I am joined by Dr Ben Greenhough, the current head of research at sports VR company Rezzil. Ben comes from a sport science background and after working in a couple of football clubs, he ended up in his current, very interesting role at Rezzil. Rezzil offer various solutions for individual players and for this episode we focus on video analysis, injury rehabilitation and cognitive training. Really interesting to see what is currently being done, but also to start thinking about where this technology can go to in the future.
