Using the footage and its machine-learning technology, Tetavi built out the models of the players and the mascot at their studios. The final product was shown during the Kings' playoff series against the Edmonton Oilers.
"It was a pleasure working with the players and Bailey to bring this in-game activation to life, and we have ambitious plans to supercharge engagement for Kings fans around the world," Tetavi CEO Gilad Talmon said. "This is a major step in our mission to democratize volumetric technology."
The videos were shown on the arena's video screens rather than in a VR headset. They were just a taste of what volumetric capture can produce. But it wasn't hard to imagine a fan immersing themselves in the Metaverse as 3D Kings players whirl around them or as an expanding army of Baileys pound their drums around them.
