QuesTec
Announces eReplays.com
Deer Park,
N.Y. Wednesday, October 13, 1999
- QuesTec Imaging, Inc. (NASD-BB:
QSTI) ,announces
eReplays.com. eReplays.com is a
business-to-business technology
content enabler that will
revolutionize the way leagues,
teams, internet and interactive
television providers choose to
entertain, inform and educate
their sports fans. eReplays.com
captures, transmits and
reconstructs live action during
sporting events and offers
comprehensive, unique and
informative content that
complements existing information
offerings as well as live network
television coverage.
eReplaysTM
are created through proprietary
video- and computer-based
tracking systems designed,
developed and provided by QuesTec
and its partners. These systems
instantly analyze the live game
and convert that action into
real-time filtered and encrypted
digital streams. This digital
information is then delivered to
the sports information provider
over the Internet by QuesTec's
eSportsTM technology.
The digital information is used
for the re-creation of live game
action on home computers and
interactive television set-top
boxes. eReplays are available and
displayed via the Internet
seconds after live play. eSports
technology often allows eReplays
to arrive on home computers as
quickly as the live televised
production appears on viewers'
televisions. eSports-enabled
applications do not require high
bandwidth connections, unlike
many other multi-media
applications. A simple analog
dial-up connection is all that is
necessary for this ultimate
real-time viewing experience
during a live event.
"eReplays.com
is the culmination of our
dedicated efforts to develop and
deploy eSports-enabled content
for sports information providers.
We have designed and created
real-time solutions for the
convergence of digital media and
sports coverage. eReplays allows
our clients to leap beyond the
convention of merely reporting,
and will enable them to provide
their consumers with a unique,
and informative experience",
stated Chris Malone, New Media
Manager, QuesTec.
eReplays.com’s
first commercial application is
eBaseballTM. eBaseball
consists of real-time captured,
quantified and re-created
professional baseball content.
This digital real-time
information contains the speed of
the pitch, the complete
trajectory of the ball in flight,
plate location, quantified ball
movement, break information and
type of pitch. QuesTec provided
this eSports-enabled real-time
digital service during the 1999
All Star Game from Boston’s
Fenway Park. eBaseball’s
digital stream was actively
displayed on both the
cbs.sportsline.com and
majorleaguebaseball.com web sites
throughout the game.
"The creation
and enablement of the
distribution of our sports
content over the Internet is a
milestone for QuesTec",
stated Edward Plumacher, founder,
QuesTec. "Unlike our virtual
replays which appear as limited
features during televised
sporting events, eReplays are
designed to capture, quantify and
transmit continuous real-time
digital streams. eReplays.com
gives our business-to-business
clients the ability to provide
displaced fans quality content
and also allows them to create a
real-time interactive environment
that complements live network
television coverage."
QuesTec provides
real-time motion capture, replay
and analysis products for sports
entertainment, display media,
business and industry. The
company develops real-time
virtual replays and eSports
technology for mainstream
professional sports and
entertainment. QuesTec's
technology offers unique content
and visualization for the
convergence of today's emerging
digital media.
