Deutsche Telekom Group, which Hrvatski Telekom is a member of, is the pioneer of technological innovation. On September 6 at Berlin Telekom Street Gigs, together with the American music giants Red Hot Chili Peppers, they will present to the fans of the band the world's first concert they can watch via HD live stream in 360 degrees. This is the first musical event of that kind, and fans around Croatia will be able to enjoy in the interactive live stream of the concert on the web page of Hrvatski Telekom.
Musical spectacle will be available to all customers of Deutsche Telekom, and Hrvatski Telekom Telecom, who have smartphones, cardboard and Samsung Gear VR. This real digital experience is available in Croatia on September 6, starting at 8 p.m. here, and enables fans to become interactive directors and to independently decide whether to watch a concert of the global superstars directly from the front row, dance with the famous four on stage or follow the reaction of fans. Deutsche Telekom is the main organizer of this so far unseen digital concert experience that in a second transports fans from the warmth of their own homes to the fiery stage and the stands of this old Berlin power plant, and gives a new perspective to this concert.
“We excite with innovations. Together with the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, in cooperation with Warner Music Group Germany and thanks to the best network we will create a new dimension of entertainment, using the 360-degree live stream and virtual reality technology. True to our brand promise – Life is for sharing“, explains Deutsche Telekom.
It's very simple to take part in this live experience: by moving the smartphone and tablet, or drag and drop of the mouse on a computer, you can look into every corner, and to achieve the full effect of 360 degree live stream, you will need a smart phone, YouTube application and virtual reality equipment, such as a cardboard or Samsung Gear VR. With this combination, you can experience the concert from home or on the move, as if you are actually there, all with the help of eight professional 360 degree cameras set on location, which can broadcast in different positions.
This concert is being held as part of the Telekom Street Gigs, deutsche Telekom music program, and takes place a t the same time as the IFA, the oldest consumer electronics show.
