It was held in BMW Park, which has the world’s first permanently installed high-tech video sports floor
The international volleyball match between Germany and Italy last week, held in Munich’s BMW Park, was the first to be played on a full LED video sports floor.
BMW Park has the world’s first permanently installed high-tech video sports floor, providing promotional opportunities for sponsors, and an immersive multimedia experience for fans.
The ASB GlassFloor was used during the volleyball match to display a variety of immersive graphics during the match. As René Beck, CFO of the German Volleyball Association, explains: “With the innovative glass floor technology, we were able to accompany the match with striking visual effects — from animated player introductions and waving flags during the national anthem to dynamic animations after each point.
“For the players, it was an extraordinary experience to perform on such a stage, in a packed arena, against a world-class opponent like Italy. And our fans were visibly thrilled — they witnessed volleyball on an entirely new level.”
National team member Erik Röhrs said: “Playing on the video sports floor is special in so many ways. It’s perfect for event-style matches — whether for advertising, effects, or showcasing our names and images. Seeing the flag displayed across the floor during the anthem was a real highlight.
“The surface feels slightly firmer than usual, and there’s a pleasant warmth coming from the floor. Events like this are essential for pushing our sport forward — and the floor is ideal for that. It was a great experience and hopefully not the last.”
The game was streamed live via BR24Sport, dyn and the Twitch channel from spontent.
