Liberty Corner, New Jersey, United States: The United States Golf Association (USGA) has released the 2019 US Open App, powered by Cisco, to provide sports fans around the world with an engaging and innovative digital experience for the 119th US Open Championship at Pebble Beach Golf Links (June 10-16).
The app is available through the Apple App Store and Google Play.
Those unable to attend the championship will have the opportunity to experience the iconic course in new and enhanced ways. Through 360-degree virtual reality, cameras will go inside the ropes, giving fans a close-up view of the historic course and golf’s greatest players, as well as behind-the-scenes access.
The Virtual Photo Booth is another new app feature that enables fans around the world to share the Pebble Beach experience no matter where they are. Utilising 3D modelling technologies, fans can use their phone to bring the US Open Trophy to life via augmented reality.
Another photo op within the Virtual Photo Booth allows fans to take a scenic selfie with iconic Pebble Beach as the backdrop. This innovative concept known as the parallax experience takes a static photo and adds subtle movement to it, creating a near 3D effect.
For
the first time, the on-site map will include a way-finding feature powered by
Cisco. The new navigation will provide fans with step-by-step directions to
easily navigate to their favourite players, iconic locations, concessions and
amenities around the course.
“Building on the success of the 2018 US Open App and other USGA digital
platforms, we set out to create truly unique experiences for today’s sports
enthusiasts,” said Navin Singh, Chief
Commercial Officer of the USGA.
He added: “With our partner Cisco, we have built a first-of-its-kind, course-wide Wi-Fi network that gives us the speed and confidence to dynamically deliver content and new experiences to our fans through the 2019 US Open App.
“We’ve been able to stretch our imagination, creating innovative features that help fans everywhere to consume, share and engage with the championship like never before.”
Additional features of the US Open App include:
