Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 23: wTVision, a global leader in broadcast technology, working for the BCCI (Board of Cricket Control in India), has introduced a robotic pet camera system during the Indian Premier League 2025. It was premiered during the match between the Mumbai Indians and the Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
The innovation has been developed by wTVision in technical partnership with Omnicam and the BCCI to reimagine live sports coverage and enhanced audience engagement. The goal was to create something fresh that connects emotionally with viewers, while keeping the focus on the game. The robot in the form of a Dog allowed for an interactive, character-driven experience that adds personality and lifts up the viewing experience for the audience. It reacts in real time with players, umpires, and the crowd with actions like handshakes, jumps, and heart gestures.
The TV production and marketing team of BCCI saw the opportunity to engage audiences in a fresh and playful way and add a layer of emotion and entertainment to the live sports coverage. The goal was to create relaxed, shareable moments that connect with viewers both in-stadium and on-screen.
