In 2018, 02, the Czech Republic’s largest fixed, mobile and broadband service provider, launched their next generation TV service, backed by SmartLabs full solution suite.

The groundbreaking feature delivered by the O2 service is Multi-dimensional TV. Sports fans may choose up to six football, tennis or hockey matches and view them simultaneously in a multi-dimensional mosaic. The user may then select different viewing angles from multiple broadcast cameras in each match as well as selecting which commentary to listen to.
“The plan is to open the system to third-party applications in the following phase. That will make it possible, for example, to have an integrated YouTube player or a DVB-T/T2 tuner for terrestrial broadcasting even without a subscription to O2 TV.”
