Last year was marked by groundbreaking achievements, industry accolades, and technological advancements that have set new standards in immersive telepresence. We are thrilled to continue redefining audience engagement with live events in the year ahead.

Advancing Immersive Experiences in Autonomous Racing

In 2024, we partnered with ASPIRE to deliver a cutting-edge VR livestream solution for the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League (A2RL). This landmark event, held at the Yas Marina Circuit, showcased AI-driven, Dallara-built Super Formula cars capable of speeds up to 300 km/h. Fans around the world experienced the thrill of the race in real time through our ultra-low latency, 360-degree immersive VR video and playback applications, delivering cockpit views directly to their headsets.

Ending 2024 on a High

Meta’s Horizon app topped the iPhone charts on Christmas Day, cementing VR as 2025’s must-have tech. The Quest 3 and 3S headsets saw record sales, surpassing major consoles and out-selling all PlayStation & Xbox versions combined. Affordable pricing, mixed reality features, and a vast app library made VR more accessible than ever. With over 150,000 units sold in December, Meta’s devices confirm VR’s shift from novelty to mainstream, delivering immersive entertainment and practical applications — establishing virtual reality as a defining success for the future.
