NASCAR NEXTEL FanView combines the race telecast and up to seven in-car camera channels and direct audio feeds.
At Daytona International Speedway last week, NASCAR fans got a taste of the latest technology designed to satiate their appetite for race-related information, including video, audio and data.
Sprint Nextel, NASCAR and Kangaroo.TV rolled out NASCAR NEXTEL FanView, the latest wireless handheld scanner delivering a multimedia experience.
NASCAR NEXTEL FanView combines the race telecast and up to seven in-car camera channels, direct audio feeds allowing the user to listen to live driver and team conversations, as well as the radio broadcast and an exclusive audio-replay feature.
The device and service also tap directly into NASCAR's timing and scoring system, providing fans with real-time race data and statistics at the touch of a button. The device, featuring technology licensed by Kangaroo.TV, will be available for rent during all NASCAR NEXTEL Cup SeriesTM weekends. All data, audio and video are transmitted over the 2.5GHz wireless broadcast spectrum.
