One Stadium, Infinite Broadcasts: The Globalization of Sports Streaming

This means a single game can now reach fans in hundreds of countries simultaneously – and not just with a generic feed, but with tailored commentary, camera angles, and experiences for each audience. In this deep dive, we ...

Spatial Sports Media in the Living Room: A New Era of Interactive Viewing
Imagine it’s Sunday afternoon and a family is gathered in the living room to watch a big game on their 75- inch smart TV. Suddenly, a spectacular play happens – say a wide receiver makes a leaping catch at the sideline.

But with spatial media enabled, the viewer at home can grab the TV remote and become the director for that moment. Follow us on linked ...

Demystifying Spatial Media Formats: From Point Clouds to Neural Fields
Volumetric video is essentially the art of capturing 3D movement over time, think of it as filming a performance in a way that you can later walk around it. Instead of watching shadows on a wall, as in traditional flat video, we’re capturing the entire sculpture in motion, with depth and volume. In practice, volumetric capture uses many cameras to record a subject from all angles, then reconstructs a full 3D video of that subject. The result is video you can experience from any viewpoint, as ...

The RSN Reckoning: How Teams Are Adapting with Direct-to-Consumer Streaming
