VOGO and Recrea : An innovative partnership to revolutionize swimming

Now a training base for the French Swimming Federation, the brand-new Aquatic Center features the latest innovative VOGO solutions.

The Recrea Group

Opposite the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, the Aquatic Center hosted diving, water polo and artistic swimming events at the Paris 2024 Games.

It is a training base for the French Swimming Federation and its diving center, as well as for members of the French swimming team.

Open to the general public, it offers swimming lessons, school classes and a wide range of sporting activities (paddle tennis, bouldering, fitness, etc.), all managed by Groupe Recrea, a major player in the field of support for disabled people and rehabilitation, and in the outsourced management of leisure and sports facilities.

Recrea benefits from 40 years of experience and manages over 100 facilities for 10 million users today.

The brief

Deploy relevant audio and video solutions in all areas of the Saint-Denis Aquatic Center, to improve swimmers’ performance thanks to live video feedback accessible via tablets, touch screens and dedicated Cloud.

The deployed solution

The Saint-Denis Aquatic Centre is equipped with the VOGOSCOPE solution, in partnership with the Recrea Group. This advanced live and replay video solution aims to improve athletes’ performance by offering them instant video feedback accessible via tablets, touch screens and a dedicated cloud.

The deployment of the VOGOSCOPE solution within the center includes several installations, in particular :

  • Bassin de plongeon : installation de deux caméras subaquatiques et trois caméras hors d’eau, reliées à une tablette et un écran tactile.
  • Olympic pool: installation of six underwater cameras, two overhead cameras, a tablet and a touch screen.
  • Dry diving zone: a combination of fixed and mobile cameras, accompanied by tablets and dedicated screens.

The result

Optimizing sports performance

Thanks to underwater and above-water cameras, athletes and their coaches can analyse their movements and techniques in detail, in real time or off-line. This enables precise corrections to be made and performance to be improved rapidly.

Immersive and interactive experience

Spectators, coaches and officials benefit from improved visibility of training sessions and competitions thanks to live coverage and broadcasts on screens, tablets or smartphones, offering a more immersive and educational experience.

Instant analysis and replay

Athletes and coaches have immediate access to videos so they can adjust their technique in real time. Digitalising video analysis simplifies the management of training sessions and competitions, and reduces the infrastructure costs associated with installing complex systems.

“This partnership will enable the Saint-Denis Aquatic Centre to be at the cutting edge of technology. Over and above this project, it’s a new opportunity for us to digitize the facilities entrusted to us. This objective is perfectly in line with our vocation: to provide our users with ever more innovations to enhance their sporting activities.”
