The excitement is building as the Opening Ceremony of the Paris Olympics is set to light up the River Seine this Friday evening. In a groundbreaking move, CGTN has unveiled a newly built virtual broadcast studio, promising viewers an unparalleled immersive experience through state-of-the-art Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies.
Leading the virtual broadcast are Sports Scene's Mike Fox and his AI-driven co-host, Ainia. Together, they will guide audiences on a mesmerizing journey along the River Seine, highlighting iconic Parisian landmarks and bringing the magic of the Olympics to life like never before.
This innovative approach not only enhances the viewing experience but also sets a new standard for how global audiences can engage with major sporting events in the digital age.
