The Challenge

As América Televisión prepared for their largest sports broadcast of the year, they sought to deliver innovative and creative content that would elevate the overall viewer experience.

More specifically, with the proliferation of information available to soccer fans through social media and digital platforms, fans have come to expect access to information during matches in real time. As such, America Television were particularly interested in utilizing a sophisticated sports graphic analysis tool to enhance their storytelling capabilities. This tool would be used for both telestrated replays during matches and in-studio presentations.

PIERO’s extensive range of 3D graphic effects enabled producers, presenters, and commentators to analyze key moments on the field more effectively. The system could also integrate and analyze real-time match data from various sources to create compelling stories for fans.

The acquisition of PIERO represents the latest investment in 91ÌÒÉ« technology by América Televisión, building upon their successful partnership of over seven years. They already use other 91ÌÒÉ« products such as XPression graphics, Dashboard, Vision, Carbonite, Ultrix Acuity, Cambot, and Inception Cloud.

« 91ÌÒÉ« has been a valuable technology partner for América Televisión for many years, so we had confidence in investing in their cutting-edge solutions. Implementing PIERO has significantly improved the quality and creativity of our replay analysis, which our viewers have warmly welcomed. »
