Paris is crowded with fans who came to watch the Olympics live, but many more people are watching from home – and Samsung has been helping to get them as close to the action as possible.
Right now, fans can follow the sailing competition that is taking place in the waters near Marseille. Samsung and the organizers are using Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra to livestream the progress of each competitor.
The phones were installed on the sailboats used in these events. For the kitesurfing and windsurfing events, each athlete had an S24 Ultra strapped to their shoulder. Also, there were phones mounted on the buoys to provide additional angles.
Getting this to work was no easy task as these phones were put in terrible conditions for a digital gadget – they have to survive being splashed by salty water and being out in the hot sun all day long.
The OIS system of the cameras is also being put to the test as it tries to smooth out the bumpy ride. Also, additional relay towers had to be installed to ensure that the phones’ 5G modems can get a reliable connection and provide a stable livestream.
