The NHL RFP

Following the success of the 2016 World Cup of Hockey, the NHL asked SMT to propose an approach and an architecture to leverage an NHL league-wide tracking system with the goal of providing VIRTUALf/x graphics capabilities to every NHL broadcaster for every NHL game.

SMT's Proposal:

  1. Install and deploy SMT's OASIS Platform into all NHL Arenas.
