Bundesliga to trial 5G in stadium

This weekend’s Supercup in Germany between Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig will see 1,000 Vodafone customers trialling a new 5G app on their smartphones.

Fans will be able to use the app to discover more data about what’s happening on the pitch – such as how fast Sadio Mane is running.

By pointing their screen at the pitch, fans can access augmented reality graphics where they can follow a particular player’s performance.

The app has been developed by the Deutsche Fussball League and Vodafone and it will be the first time it’s been available during a competitive game. TVB Europe
