Not sure what you mean by this?
Even so, it’s not about perfect immersion. It’s about having the best view of the game sitting from home.

- sloproth 2y agoWhat are the technologies that would make this possible? My assumption is that you have multiple cameras around the court, similar to how the infamous matrix bullet dodging scene was captured, and then use that to create an explorable virtual environment. I'm fascinated by this. Thanks!
