How OSAI Mixed Reality in sport works
1
Low-latency video stream
Real-time Mixed Reality in sports runs on top of the live sports broadcast, enhancing it with immersive animations in real-time. OSAI can create its own video feed by installing a camera on-site. Or you can share existing video content with OSAI by sending it locally through SDI/RTMP. There has to be one video feed that is used for data collection purposes (OSAI main) — the one with a complete overview of the playing area.

Data collection & event recognition
OSAI uses AI/ML and Computer Vision to analyze the live video and extract data after each frame. There are differences in tech requirements for the video depending on the sport OSAI covers. For example, real-time Mixed Reality in table tennis requires 120 frames per second versus in tennis OSAI can run on 30–60 fps. OSAI collects data on all game events from the OSAI main video feed.

Insights visualization
Once OSAI collected data and recognized game events from the live video, the system visualises them as immersive animations. Mixed Reality in sport animations are pre-produced according to a creative brief from the client. It is displayed according to the set of conditions, like a certain time, a game event, athlete's pose, or position of the ball. Mixed Reality in sport by OSAI is not bound to only one camera angle — the technology seamlessly transfers immersive animations between the cameras, ensuring high-quality diverse content.

The video feeds are sent to a production room, where it is produced as part of the linear broadcast or live streaming.
