Gold Coast CEO Mark Evans says the club is planning a potential world first visual integration for their home games in 2020.
The Suns play three of their next four matches at Metricon Stadium and Evans revealed the club is devising a way to help improve the TV product with games being played behind closed doors.
“We’re trying to find a way to integrate something visually. There are some technical difficulties to it so I won’t promise it just yet,” Evans told SEN’s Dwayne’s World.
“We think we’ll be the first – maybe in the world – to get it done if we can make it work.
“We’d like to capture some of the TV attention. There’s been lots of talk about do you pipe in noise and will the players like that? Do you play songs that the players like between goals?
“I’m not sure we got a really good look at it in Round 1, but we should be experts at this by the time we get through this season.”
Like the Suns, Collingwood is also exploring the idea of introducing visualisations to fill empty stadiums once the season resumes.
