If Japan won the FIFA World Cup rights in 2022, instead of Qatar, they were doing holograms of the games.

3D and holographic simulcasts[edit]​

Japan pledged that if it had been granted the rights to host the 2022 World Cup games, it would develop technology enabling it to provide a live international telecast of the event in 3D, which would allow 400 stadiums in 208 countries to provide 360 million people with real-time 3D coverage of the games projected on giant screens, captured in 360 degrees by 200 HD cameras. Furthermore, Japan will broadcast the games in holographic format if the technology to do so is available by that time. Beyond allowing the world's spectators to view the games on flat screens projecting 3D imaging, holographic projection would project the games onto stadium fields, creating a greater illusion of actually being in the presence of the players.[3] Microphones embedded below the playing surface would record all sounds, such as ball kicks, in order to add to the sense of realism.[4][5]

Japan's bidding team has enlisted pioneering technology scientist Jun Murai of Keio University in their plans to host the games. The country demonstrated holographic display technology at the 2009 NAB Show using integral cameras (sometimes referred to as 8K) and wavefront reconstruction,[6] and Murai has stated that Japan could develop the means for the necessary technologies to be realized by 2016. Murai and committee managing director Takato Maruyama have stated they are confident that the endeavor is feasible.[7] The event would be co-organized with South Korea.[6]

In addition to projection, "translation earpieces" would be available to allow fans of different nations to converse with each other. Devices would also be available which would allow people to instantly capture information about players by pointing at them.[7]

[Used 2 B Hu]

Really? That was roughing?

 

[forty_three]

Great idea, Suter. After taking a stupid penalty, yell at the ref after the other team scores.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Is that the makeup penalty?

 

[forty_three]

Looked like Perry hurt himself diving.

That's poetic.

Stars should just decline the power play.
