FC Cincinatti Display New Stadium To Supporters Via Virtualisation Technology
July 24, 2020
Major League Soccer is in the midst of an unstoppable expansion, gathering more and more American supporters and attracting the attention of international spectators, with the latest new franchise, Charlotte FC, confirmed this week.
One of the newest franchises to enter MLS is FC Cincinnati, who entered their debut season in the league in 2019. Upon the approval of the team’s incorporation, ambitious plans were drawn up for the construction of a top MLS stadium. West End Stadium is to be the new home of FC Cincinnati, with a capacity of over 25,500 fans, and a modern and welcoming design.
Although the opening is scheduled for 2021, it is already possible to see what the final look of the stadium will be like thanks to its 3D representation. The 3D Digital Venue team has been responsible for the virtualisation of West End Stadium, with the goal of providing fans with an accurate view of their new home as well as to start organising the technical aspects of the transition to the new venue.
This is possible thanks to the technology provided by 3DDV, which allows for an accurate interpretation of all aspects of the venue, such as seat positions, colors, textures and materials. The result is a 3D model in the form of a widget that is integrated into the teams ticketing platform, SeatGeek, making the season ticket buying process both visually appealing and simple for all FC Cincinnati fans in their first season at the new stadium.
In addition, all the VIP spaces have been virtualised to offer future guests a true representation of the premium area amenities. Customers interested in this type of product will be able to see the exact suite or club they are interested in, as well as its decoration and view perspective of the pitch.
