deltatre and the BBC have worked together for seven years across a number of global sporting events, including the 2010 South Africa World Cup and the 2012 European Championships.

In 2011, deltatre opened an office in MediaCityUK, Salford.  This close operating proximity has enabled deltatre to support the development and maintenance of state of the art services such as the Augmented Reality (AR) Graphic System used on Match of the Day. Employing virtual AR graphics enriches the viewing experience of audiences, adding a deeper understanding of match analysis and enhances topics discussed by the shows presenters.
