HeadVantage is developing wearable technology designed to bring fans closer to the action in live sports.
Its lightweight headset captures an athlete's point of view, along with eye-tracking, biometric, and telemetry data, then streams it in real-time through the company's Wearable Interactive Network (WIN). The idea is to let viewers experience games from the athlete's perspective while creating new data and media opportunities for teams, leagues, broadcasters, and sports-betting partners.
HeadVantage was ranked as a top sports-tech startup by leaders from NBC Sports, Sky Sports, and the PGA Tour. And it was selected into the NFL's Forward Program, an initiative designed for the football league to collaborate with tech startups.
