Summary
Leland Hedges, Vice President, Product & Marketing explains how Virtually Live is using the latest in VR to put fans into the heart of the action. Virtually Live's patented technology creates an immersive VR experience for the fan, redefining what's possible in sports.
Using three dimensional tracking (3D Tracking) to capture action as it happens, the captured data is then used to recreate the scene virtually in near real-time. Fans have the freedom to move throughout the stadium, follow a match or racing event or other sporting event, and interact with each other through chat & other audio/video channels.
If you love sports and love experiencing sports with friends, co-workers or family, Virtually Live is going to be a fantastic and exciting way to 'up your game'.
