AV Integration Company, IVCi, Discusses Three Must Have's When Designing eSports Venues
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., March 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- As technology continues to advance and adapt, so do the industries that are taking advantage of new emerging tech. eSports venues are engaging spaces where fans visit and watch tournaments, just like traditional sports fans. In order to showcase the importance of technology in all types of industries, AV integration company, IVCi, discusses three must have's when designing eSports venues.
- Network. One of the most important aspects of an eSports venue is the network. During tournaments and games, numerous players will be competing with one another – ensuring that the local network is able to keep up with fast pace games without lagging or skipping is extremely important. The network security is also imperative since any network break or mishap could potentially affect the outcome of a game or tournament.
- High Quality Video Streaming. Along with a strong network, eSports venues need high quality video streaming to get through games and tournaments without a glitch. Some venues will encompass hundreds of screens and must have a streaming system that does not lag or skip during tournaments. In addition to high quality streaming, each screen should be accessible from any location within the venue.
- Intercom Narratives. Just like in traditional sports venues, eSports venues will need to have game narratives to add to the overall fan experience. Audio is just an important as video during these tournaments, which is why it is important for venues to have control rooms or a location where broadcasters are able to narrate and provide play-by-plays for those in the venue that may not be able to see every player at every time, or may have a hard time following the game. The audio in these venues should create an immersive experience for the fans, almost placing them in the game itself.
eSports venues are continuing to adapt with technology, adding in new and improved features whenever they are readily available. Designing eSports venues and understanding what technologies should be prioritized can be confusing – take these three aspects into consideration when designing your next eSports venue.
