BSI integrating 360° filming with wireless cameras for live sports action
posted:
BSI is using its own REAL FREEDOM wireless camera technology to add a 360° experience to a live sports production. The concept is that the viewer will be given a 360° view of a stadium, and will be able to look around the stadium as they like, in real time, using their own iPad or iPhone – which they can use with or without a traditional television screen.
BSI will offer the wireless 360° imaging to broadcasters and production companies that want to give viewers the extra option of adding a 360° view of a sports event in a stadium.
“For BSI, this is a natural development from the work we are doing with our new 4k link developments, corner-post cameras and dual stream transmission from POV cameras – we now have a working prototype and we can show our first wireless 360° images.”
BSI provides camera systems for live events on a hire basis, and offers a number of cameras for High Definition or 1080p/50 3G images – including bodyworn, airborne and POV camera systems.
