delatre And Vizrt Join Forces For World Cup

Italy-based sports media and technology company deltatre and Vizrt have broadened their partnership with Magma Pro powered by Viz Libero for the upcoming FIFA World Cup.
Viz Libero, Vizrt’s 3D sports analysis tool, accesses the Magma database to attach and display deltatre statistics to a player within the Viz Libero analysis.
deltatre has been using Vizrt broadcast graphics products since 2004. Earlier this year they added several new Vizrt products to their production setup. Viz Trio, Vizrt’s character generator (CG), is being used for live production of all real-time graphics, including lower thirds, match-ups and score boards.
Jim Irving, Commercial Director at deltatre, said: "We have a successful track record of integrating Vizrt products into innovative solutions for deltatre’s clients. Therefore, it’s fitting that the culmination of this relationship, Magma Pro powered by Viz Libero, will be used prominently during the biggest sporting event of 2014."
"This solution will make anyone’s coverage of the World Cup really shine," said Petter Ole Jakobsen, Vizrt CTO.
"The mix of deltatre’s high-quality sports event data and production with our Viz Libero produces a system that gives viewers unparalleled insight into what is happening on the pitch. I can’t wait to see it live during the tournament."
Magma Pro powered by Viz Libero will be unveiled for the first time this December in Rio de Janeiro in preparations for the upcoming World Cup.
