Microsoft: Imagining the future for NFL fans - YouTube


How will the future American football change?


A boy who dashes with the flag of the favorite team.


This woman is changing her supporters uniform.


Some also pulled out uniforms from the closet for watching games.


Also, the more pet dogs are wearing uniforms, the more NFL is known as the popular sport in America.


When the game relay started, the man who was watching TV wore a device like something on his head.


The man has a Microsoft head-up display "Microsoft HoloLens". Like a goggle, because a fixing belt is attached ......


I wear it from the top of the head and wear it.


Prior to installing Microsoft HoloLens, we watched the game on a small TV screen only.


However, by attaching Microsoft HoloLens, the screen spreads through the wall.


By using the whole wall of the room as a screen, not only the TV screen, you can experience the immersive feeling as if you are in the stadium.


If you move the viewpoint up, down, left and right, the image reflected on the wall also moves according to the movement of the body, so you can watch from any direction 360 degrees.


Because Microsoft HoloLens is fixed to the head around the forehead and the lens part is made larger, it seems that Microsoft HoloLens can be installed even from above the glasses.


If you do something like pinching your finger in front of you ... ...


The information of the stadium was displayed on the living table.


When reaching in front of my eyes ...


Match information such as score and player name is displayed.


You can also see detailed information on each player. Since game information is reflected in real time, you can concentrate on watching games without having to check information on other terminals such as smartphones.


A friend came to my house.


When I watched sports a lot, the man pinned his forefinger.


Then, the NFL player appeared in front of me, breaking through the wall beside the TV. It is possible to see the athletes who are cheering up close.


Furthermore, the information of the athlete was displayed on the table with graphs and numerical values.


Replay the match highlight scene using the table.


Put the tip of the thumb and forefinger together, then draw sideways ......


The point of view can be changed.


The locus of the flying ball is indicated by VR.


Raising your eyes, again the video of a life-sized player appears.


It is possible to see the height / weight of the athlete and the state of catch ball playing in front of you.


Without you staying at home, you will experience as if you are in the stadium, there is no doubt that the game watching will be exciting.
