Accedo Launches Xtend Sports

News Image
Accedo has launched a new metaverse solution, Xtend Sports, to enable sports bodies such as rights holders and broadcasters to create powerful immersive metaverse sports experiences using existing web-based applications.

The new solution will be available during AWS re:Invent in Las Vegas from 28th November – 2nd December, 2022.

Accedo Xtend Sports enables sports organizations to easily create new metaverse experiences by simply embedding existing web-based applications into a metaverse environment. As a modular solution, rights holders and broadcasters can choose only the add-ons they require, such as multicamera, live stats, or co-watching using XR powered avatars. It can be easily integrated with any existing vendors and is monetizable through creation of sponsored interactive experiences or ad-placements. The multiplatform solution works with most common VR and AR headsets on the market.

Accedo Xtend Sports builds on Accedo’s extensive immersive experience to bring sports to the metaverse. Powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), it enables remote configuration and customization. Video hosting, encoding, and streaming is all managed using AWS Media Services, enabling sports organizations to create high quality XR content, and build live and on-demand video workflows. Thanks to integration with Amazon Lex, video content providers could also build in voice control with advanced natural language models.
