I liked it about 8 years ago when they had the "Eagle Eye" vision cameras all around on top of the stadum, and they were able to basically do "bullet time" replays. THAT was bad ass.
@Mexigun That was cool, but MEGA expensive. Back then they had 1 server per camera. I think the video is on youtube if you search for Eye Vision explaining all the backend that went into it. Now with ESPN Axis and the like, they do it via existing camera angles and interpolate the action. Also cool, but not quite as cool. I wonder if it could be done now a days for cheaper, and if so, by how much. Let me know if you can't find the video, I think I have a copy.
The device is aimed at gamers and TV watchers, generating a 3D image with use of a pair of 0.7-inch OLED panels, which each display separate images, doing away with the ghost imagery that often comes along with 3D displays.
