Sports is one of the domains where AR and VR technology is being put to use in very different ways and we already become used to its presence in sports such as football, basketball and tennis.

That’s why, on January 28 at 17:00 (Madrid time) we invite you for our Members Solutions Showcase where we will meet AR and VR solutions applied to the sports industry and see different ways of doing it.

In this session we will see different types of application that use AR and VR technology, developed by our members:
