As drones are used in various fields, the use of drones is also increasing in the field of sports in 해외축구중계. The use of drones may change the nature of sports broadcasts.
Here is the introduction of the use of drones in sports broadcasting and their advantages. Drones are already being used in the following sports broadcasts:
Football
In a 해외축구중계 match broadcasted on television, the focus is likely to be on the player dribbling the ball and the players around him. Players who are far away from the ball are rarely shown, so it is difficult to see them.
Therefore, if you shoot with a drone, you should be able to see the players who are far away from the ball. In Japan, in April 2017, there was a case where drone aerial photography was done at a J-League match, and there are also cases overseas such as Cambodia and Thailand.
When watching a soccer match from above, you can see the movements of all the players in both leagues, and you can feel the charm that is not found in ordinary soccer broadcasts.
Rugby
In rugby, drone aerial photography was done at the World Cup held in Japan in 2019.
Rugby is characterized by the fact that many players are often concentrated in one place. It’s not uncommon for us to not be able to see the details in a side-angle video taken with a normal video camera.
Therefore, drone aerial photography was done by trying to shoot from the sky. Even in scenes where players are crowded, you will be able to clearly see which player is doing what kind of movement.
Snowboard/snowmobile
Snowboards and snowmobiles were photographed by drones at the American sports competition called X-Games.
If you look at the video taken from the sky with a drone, you can understand the entire course and the positional relationships. By taking drone aerial shots from a position close to the line of sight of the athletes when they slide down, it will be possible to simulate the thrill that the athletes feel.
Safety measure
Safety measures are essential because drones can lead to accidents if they are mishandled.
Overseas, there have been cases of accidents involving aerial photography of sports using drones. At an Italian alpine skiing competition, a drone flying very close to an athlete fell down. Although the drones did not collide with the players, it was considered very dangerous.
If safety measures can be taken to prevent such accidents, the use of drones in sports will expand further.
Summary
By using drones in sports broadcasts, you will be able to enjoy watching sports from an angle from above. There are already examples of use in soccer, rugby, snowboarding, etc., and it is conceivable that it will be used in other sports in the future.
Drones are used not only for relaying game footage, but also for practicing and considering tactics.
