Summary
SportsCastr is an ultra-low latency live video platform for sports that brings studio-quality features to anyone with an iPhone, including real-time score-bugs, broadcast quality motion graphics and augmented reality.
In addition to being a powerful second-screen experience that allows viewers to personalize the commentary for any game (or to jump in and share their own reactions), the Company is developing unique social OTT functionality that combines SportsCastr's technology with live sporting events (including esports) -- opening up a new paradigm for how fans watch the game.
The first live events will be broadcast on SportsCastr beginning Summer 2018.
