Transforming Live Sports - VisualOn and Agora to Demo AI-...

VisualOn, a leader in multimedia playback and AI-enhanced video optimization, has partnered with Agora, the global leader in real-time engagement and interactive streaming, to redefine the live sports and esports viewing experience. This collaboration integrates VisualOn's OnStream MediaPlayer+ with Agora's Sports Live Streaming Solution, delivering ultra-low latency streaming as low as 400ms to 800ms, with intelligent CDN fallback to ensure uninterrupted playback.

At Broadcast Asia 2025 (Agora Booth 5A2-6), the two companies will present a live joint demonstration, showcasing how this integrated solution enhances sports broadcasting with real-time tracking, multi-angle viewing, and AI-powered automation using Agora's AI Sports Cam.

Dual Streaming Advantage: Monetization Meets Real-Time Engagement

This integrated dual-mode architecture offers broadcasters and sports platforms the best of both worlds:

RTC streaming is ideal for scenarios that demand real-time responsiveness such as live sports betting and interactive audience participation.

CDN streaming supports ad monetization and replay functionality, maximizing revenue potential and long-tail engagement.

By intelligently switching between RTC and CDN streaming, platforms can strike the perfect balance between engagement and monetization all within a single playback experience.

Experience Real-Time, AI-Enhanced Sports Streaming with Sub-Second Latency

By ensuring full compatibility with VisualOn's OSMP+ Player, Agora accelerates time to market and offers a distinct performance advantage over traditional streaming solutions.

Core Capabilities Include:

Seamless CDN/RTC Switching: Automatically adapts between CDN and RTC streaming based on network conditions, ensuring smooth, high-quality playback.

AI-Powered Adaptive Playback: Dynamically adjusts video quality to optimize the viewing experience in real time.

Auto-Tracking AI Camera: Captures gameplay automatically by tracking players, ball movement, and scoreboard data.

Multi-View Camera Switching: Empowers viewers to select their preferred angles during live matches.

Interactive Overlays: Supports live chat, polls, and real-time stats synced with the video stream.

Optimized Playback for Pre-Recorded Content: VisualOn's player, integrated with the Agora SDK, also ensures high performance for on-demand or simulated sports content.

Agora's 180 AI Sports Cam uses advanced computer vision to automatically capture key gameplay moments. The stream is sent directly to Agora's Media Gateway via RTMP or SRT, bypassing the need for third-party tools like OBS. It is then transcoded and delivered worldwide through Agora's Software-Defined Real-Time Network (SD-RTN ), which ensures minimal latency and maximum reliability.

On the playback side, VisualOn's SDK supports ultra-low latency RTC playback (400ms 800ms) with automatic fallback to traditional CDN protocols like HLS. This guarantees a seamless viewer experience even in challenging network environments.
