For the first time in the French ice hockey history, fans will be able to watch all games live and follow all the teams playing in the Synerglace Ligue Magnus with an automatic multi-angle camera system provided by PlaySight, a global sports technology company.

PlaySight’s state-of-the-art AI and connected camera ‘Smart’ sports technology will help Fanseat and the FFHG take the broadcasts of the Synerglace Ligue Magnus to a new level with automated production and automatic tracking. Additionally, PlaySight will provide automatic scoring and data, as well as VAR/instant video replay technology to FFHG officials – the same replay capabilities that the National Hockey League debuted a few seasons ago. PlaySight’s technology will also give Synerglace Ligue Magnus coaches and athletes with pro-level real-time performance analysis tools and technology in games.
