CNN's Virtual Election Night

摘要

In a television news landscape where high-definition cameras and 3D graphics have become commonplace, CNN still has a few technical surprises in store for viewers of its Election Night coverage. One is the introduction of virtual elements into its real-world set at the Time Warner Center in New York, using virtual-set technology from graphics firm Vizrt and Israel-based sports enhancement specialist SportVU. CNN has created a 3D virtual model of the U.S. Capitol to give a graphic representation of the impact of Senate races. Chief national correspondent John King will control that graphic from CNN's touch-screen "magic wall."
