Sports viewing

Follow the action from the stands.

Stadiums and arenas are built for atmosphere, but distance can make the action difficult to read. Closeups gives you a live, personal viewing aid for the moments your seat cannot resolve clearly on its own.

In brief

What is Closeups?

Closeups helps sports spectators inspect live action from their current seat with device-camera magnification. It cannot guarantee that every player or play will be visible, and it is not a replacement for venue accessibility support.

Keep the full game in view

Use the wide view to understand the shape of the play, then bring the detail closer when you want to inspect a player, a court-side moment, or a piece of equipment. You choose where your attention lands.

Every venue behaves differently

Lighting, roof structure, seat distance, screen brightness, and your device all affect the result. Try Closeups from your seat before the event begins rather than assuming a digital view will perform like optical zoom.

A considerate way to use it

Keep brightness low, follow venue policies, and do not hold a device above the people behind you. Closeups is meant to support the live experience, not distract from it.
