The NBA’s Washington Wizards, WNBA’s Washington Mystics, and NHL’s Washington Capitals all became the first teams in their respective leagues to partner with STRIVR virtual reality technology back in August—and now we are seeing how they will use it.
The teams have begun using STRIVR’s virtual reality technology to enhance training: they film practice sessions, upload the footage, and then can view this in 3-D with a standard virtual reality headset. This allows players to view themselves from the third person, which opens many doors when it comes to improving performance.
Additionally, these Washington teams, all owned by Monumental Sports and Entertainment which has a history of implementing tech into their franchises, will enhance the fan experience in the Verizon Center’s VIP club with STRIVR’s virtual reality.
