Can you imagine being in a Major League Baseball game? No, but like, really in it?
Then check out what MLB Advanced Media is doing next week at this NYC Media Lab meetup.
Speaking Wednesday, Nov. 16 at 6 p.m. will be Alexander Reyna, the creative director for the games department of MLBAM. Reyna will present on “Virtual reality, augmented reality and 360 video, and the potential for these emerging media technologies to re-invent the sports fan experience.”
RSVP
The event will also serve as a chance for industry folks and others to meet ahead of the NYC Media Lab and MLBAM’s big February hackathon.
Of note: the event will be held in Manhattan, which is lame, but whatever, the actual hackathon will be here at home in MetroTech.
