TF1 bietet Live-Streaming eines internationalen Fußballspiels mit 360° Virtual-Reality und Ultra HD-Technologie.

‘Virtual Arena’ offers a premium 360-degree television experience for the emerging VR environment. […] An invited audience was able to view last week’s friendly between France and Russia, streamed live to three remote sites, using VR headsets.

Working together with France national broadcaster TF1, private audiences in three locations watched the international football match between France and Russia that took place on March 29, live on VR headsets in our newly launched ‘Virtual Arena’. […] with our partners we have developed a complete best-of-breed workflow for the project, using technology from video compression and delivery company VideoStitch, and featuring live production expertise from AmpVisual TV and 360° filming and post production knowledge from Digital Immersion.
