Future
Projects
As
the worldwide leader in tracking
and digitally reconstructing key
aspects of live sporting events
for broadcast enhancement,
webcasting, and video game
production, QuesTec and its
partners are continuously
developing new products and
seeking further applications for
their existing products. In
addition to expanding its
services for products in
baseball, tennis and golf,
QuesTec plans to continue
development of exciting new
products for other sports
including basketball, football,
hockey, auto racing, cricket,
rugby, skiing and soccer. As each
new product is perfected it will
be marketed for use as a TV
broadcast enhancement, used to
create eReplays for Internet
coverage, and made available to
provide database information for
video game developers trying to
create more realistic game play.
Video
Games
QuesTec’s
technology represents the future
when it comes to developing more
realistic interaction and play in
sports based video games. As
QuesTec’s products capture
live action at sporting events
around the world that action is
automatically stored as digital
information in an ever-expanding
database. This information is
what is used to create the
three-dimensional, real-time,
virtual replays the TV networks
show during live-coverage of
certain sporting events
(baseball’s SuperVision
PitchTrax and TennisProView for
example). This same information
can be easily used by video game
developers to create the most
realistic game-play ever offered.
In tennis,
your game character could
actually face the real
rocket-type serves that come off
the racquets of players like Pete
Sampras or Venus Williams. You
could volley with Martina Hingis
throughout matches -- facing her
actual serves, forehands and
backhands that QuesTec has
captured during actual
tournament-play around the world.
Or you might want to play as
Andre Agassi against Sampras,
using Agassi's true arsenal of
shots to defeat or fall to his
on-court nemesis. The
possibilities are endless, but
the key is all the shots are
real!
In baseball,
not only could video game
developers incorporate real
pitches captured by
QuesTec’s SuperVision
PitchTrax system into future
video games, but because
QuesTec’s SuperScout system
tracks almost every player’s
and manager’s tendencies
throughout each season, game
developers could use this
information to create the
most-realistic all-around
play
imaginable. Not only could a game
player step into the
batter’s box to face Pedro
Martinez’s actual assortment
of pitches, but he or she could
try to match wits with Red Sox
manager Joe Kerrigan in terms of
when to bunt, hit-and-run, steal,
play the outfield shallow, etc.
Because baseball is a team sport,
QuesTec’s information could
be used by game developers to
make every player on the field
perform in the video game just
like they tend to perform during
actual baseball games.
QuesTec’s technologies offer
all the realistic intricacies of
baseball to game developers,
allowing them to create games
that will soon let video game
players experience the game the
way it was meant to be
experienced!
As QuesTec
continues to develop products
similar to TennisProView and
SuperVision PitchTrax for sports
such as basketball, football,
hockey and NASCAR, these products
will be able to be used by video
game developers to create more
realistic game-play in these
sports as well. The future of
realistic game-play exists in
QuesTec’s hands today!
