That was Disney’s presentation not Apples. Am I the only one who thought that part was Magic Leap level total fantasy BS?

I missed that it was part of the Disney presentation. In that case it may be just vaporware. Truthfully it would require a lot of infrastructure at the arena/stadium before it could even be realized. I’m not sure the sports team owners would be willing to pay for this expenditure without knowing the potential revenue it could generate. It’d also cannibalise some ticket sales, so it’s not necessarily a profitable move for pro sports.
If players position is already tracked adding avatars to it in real time onto a 3d visualization doesn´t seem that far fetched.
Some stadiums have cameras that fly over all the stadium but no idea if it was BS or not
Actually looks like this same thing was a Magic Leap demo

Although it appears to just be playing a human animated 3D sequence at the same time as a non-live video.
