Recognized for their capacity of innovation, the Walloon companies are more and more involved in the framework of major sporting events. For example, numerous high technologies developed in Wallonia will so be used during the Football World Cup in Brazil. Let us take a closer look at DELTACAST, based in Ans. 

DELTACAST is a subsidiary of DELTATEC, a cutting edge technology design office which specialises in the design of custom-built on-board systems in various fields, including aeronautics, aerospace, telecommunications and television. DELTACAST actually develops software, graphic solutions and products using state-of the-art technology in the audiovisual field. Its solutions are used for televised games and retransmissions of football matches.

DELTACAST offers television stations worldwide a "Brazil 2014" package. The system, already used all year round by the French-speaking Belgian television station RTBF, carries out virtual analyses and produces 3D match statistics. Besides the signal that is sent live from Brazil by the on-site media crews, the offer complements (live) studio broadcasts.

Besides RTBF, the stations TPA (Angola) and BTV (China) will use the DELTACAST package for the World Cup.
