Alibaba Group unveiled a cloud-powered platform designed to support real-time communication at the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022, bringing people closer together despite travel restrictions.
The platform, dubbed Cloud ME, allows people in multiple locations to interact using life-sized 3D projections with low latency. All data transmission is run entirely on the cloud.
“Alibaba is committed to the digitalization of the Olympic Games, and providing the technology infrastructure to promote a more inclusive and engaging experience,” said Daniel Zhang, Chairman and CEO of Alibaba Group.
