Pixellot and HELIOS Launch First-of-Its-Kind Hockey Integration Delivering Instant, Personalized, Automated Shift Video

The addition of Pixellot technology to HELIOS' AI wearable turns data into elevated athletic performance and emotional reward through enhanced skill development
Tel Aviv, Israel – April 20, 2026 – Pixellot, the global leader in AI-automated sports video production, today announced a groundbreaking integration with HELIOS, the AI wearable and app redefining hockey development.
Together, the companies introduce the first fully automated, athlete-specific shift video solution in hockey, which enables near-instaneous incorporation of game footage into the HELIOS wearable and app. With no steps required by coaches, players or parents, this “hockey intelligence” will improve the game day experience in a way not possible before.
The result: the fastest feedback loop in the sport.
Pixellot’s AI-powered capture, production, and streaming platform combined with HELIOS’ Automatic Shift Detection instantly converts full-game video into individualized shift videos, providing a seamless and complete solution.
“At Pixellot, our mission is to make sports production smarter, more scalable, and more actionable," said Colby Adamson, CCO of Pixellot.
“Hockey’s speed and structure post a unique challenge, which is why we are so thrilled to offer the integration with HELIOS’ wearable intelligence. This breakthrough extends AI beyond broadcast and into the individualized development of every hockey player, unlocking immediate value for organizations and athletes. Because of our ability to deliver this functionality broadly, including APIs and SDKs, the future of instant intelligence is unlimited.”
FROM GAME CAPTURE TO PERSONALIZED INSIGHT: FULLY AUTOMATED
-
AI Capture & Production – Pixellot automatically records and produces the game.
-
Cloud Processing – Video uploads and processes within Pixellot’s ecosystem.
-
Automatic Shift Detection – HELIOS precisely identifies when each athlete is on the ice using wearable data.
-
Instant Video Delivery – Individualized shift videos are generated and delivered automatically.
What once required manual tagging or costly coordination is now a single automated pipeline, reducing friction and dramatically accelerating delivery.
The impact: faster coaching decisions, more engaged athletes, and greater operational efficiency for programs.
A SHARED VISION FOR THE FUTURE OF DEVELOPMENT
This collaboration unites two category powerhouses: Pixellot in AI capture and streaming infrastructure, and HELIOS who leads in wearable performance intelligence.
“HELIOS was built to give athletes individualized and objective feedback into how they’re truly performing,” said Bill Near, Founder & CEO of HELIOS. “By integrating directly with Pixellot, we’ve eliminated the gap between data and video. The moment the game hits the cloud, your shifts are there. That changes how quickly players can learn and improve.”
Near added, “This is the future of development. Fully automated, deeply personalized, and accessible at scale. Together with Pixellot, we’re delivering a true ‘magic moment’ for players, parents, and coaches.”
