DUDE! Curling in VR on February 12th! Mixed doubles too! In all seriousness, Eurosport is broadcasting much of the Winter Olympics in a VR format that will be available to damn near anyone with a smartphone. This is almost certainly a big portion of how VR will intersect sports in our future. Below is a schedule of the live events on local Korean time. (South Korea is 15 hours ahead of Central Time - ie 11:13 AM Tuesday, Central Time (CT) is 2:13 AM Wednesday, South Korea (GMT+9)) There will be a highlights airing the following day as well. If you are not familiar, this sort of tech can give you a "ringside" seat.
There is a VR FAQ here that should answer all your questions. You can grab the app here for Android.
Check out the schedule.
The goal of our VR app is to give you a taste of what it’s like at the Winter Olympics with both 360° and 180° video. For live events, you will have the freedom to choose your camera angle to see the action from your favorite point of view or lean back and watch the director’s cut by selecting “VRCast.” Our app also gives you schedules, leaderboards, and medal counts to stay up to date on the standings for the world’s greatest athletic pursuits.
What content will I see in the App? - You will be able to enjoy both live and VOD immersive content for 30 events at the Olympics, including the Opening and Closing Ceremonies
