4. Live Events

Imagine having the ability to watch the 2021 World Cup with the crowd, tracking the game in real time with a tilt of your head. Goal? Celebrate with the people around you, see their reactions and feel the thrill of the match—just as if you were physically there.

The possibilities are only as endless as our imaginations.
