CBS Sports Releases

THIS JUST IN.. from CBS Sports... CBS Sports will be the first Network to use Sportvision's FreezeCam technology in an NFL telecast during this Sunday's (Nov. 4) New England-Indianapolis game.

The FreezeCam System is a significant broadcast tool that enables CBS Sports to replay game action, then "freeze" the action while zooming in, out or around the frame, to show players setting up for a given play.  Multiple points of interest are chosen and tight shots of any player in a frame can be viewed during replays by zooming in directly on the objects in question: whether a foot stepped out of bounds, how an offensive player pulled a double move to get open, etc.  This provides analysts with a new application to breakdown a play, from every angle, and easily returns to the original frame of view, by "un-freezing" and continuing where the play left off.
