Additionally, fans watching live coverage of Winnipeg Jets games on Canada's Sports Leader can see the game in new ways through frequent TSN 5G View integrations in the network's live game broadcasts.
"We're thrilled to bring the TSN 5G View experience to fans in Winnipeg and across Manitoba," said Nauby Jacob, Bell Media's Senior Vice President, Product Platforms. "With TSN 5G View, Jets fans can truly experience a 'Winnipeg White Out' from rink level in addition to watching any goal, save, or hit from any angle, directly from their 5G mobile device."
"TSN 5G View will provide the ultimate immersive experience for Winnipeg Jets fans by allowing them to experience plays from every angle," said Christina Litz, True North Sports + Entertainment's Chief Brand & Commercial Officer. "Fans will literally have every play in the palm of their hands no matter where they are watching the game."
Eighty time-slice cameras have been installed around the bowl of the arena at Winnipeg's Canada Life Centre, along with fibre connectivity, dedicated servers, and a specialized control centre to bring the technology to life on the Bell 5G network.
