A Front-Row Experience for Lakers Fans
Spectrum Front Row in Apple Immersive brings viewers closer to each pass, shot, and block. In-game graphics like lower thirds, player rosters, the game and shot clocks, and scores appear in 3D, as if they’re floating directly in front of the viewer. Ambisonic microphones capture Spatial Audio of the arena, so viewers hear the crisp squeaks of sneakers driving up and down the court, the swish of the net when a player drains a three-pointer, and the roar of the crowd during intense moments of gameplay. During timeouts, halftimes, and other breaks in the action, the broadcast remains live inside the arena, showcasing pregame introductions, team huddles, and even in-arena entertainment.
