Wireless Video Transmission Equipment Used for Live Broadcasts
The Volvo Ocean Race has partnered with Vislink, a leading provider of wireless broadcast video equipment, to supply its technology for the event.
Vislink's wireless broadcast video equipment was selected to ensure that high-quality footage of racing yachts taken from cameras on chase boats and helicopters would be transmitted without degradation back to shore live, as it happened, for viewing on giant video walls at the Race Village as well as on international TV broadcasts.
Extensive Experience in Transmitting Video
Vislink's extensive experience in transmitting video across large distances, in all weather, and in challenging conditions during racing, sports and broadcast events was critical for the success of the partnership.
