Microsoft Teams Will Power an NFL Virtual Fan Experience
For several years, Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) has had a notable presence on the fields of National Football League games through a sponsorship with its Surface tablet brand. Now it'll be in the stands, too, thanks to an expanded partnership deal with its Teams software.
Through Microsoft Teams, a Fan Mosaic of viewers on monitors will be in place as a virtual crowd at the stadiums hosting games.
The more-dedicated fans will be invited by the home team to take part in a "virtual VIP" experience, in which they will watch the game collectively via a Microsoft Teams meeting. These video feeds of individual fans will be mixed into the Fan Mosaic, and audio from them will be used to augment the virtual crowd noise.
