ATP World Championship, Hannover,
Germany. TennisProView has
recently been featured by FOX
Sports Net during their coverage
of the Sybase Open, the
Kroger/St. Jude and
Franklin-Templeton Classic. FOX
Sports featured QuesTec's
TennisProView technology as

year's Lipton Championship and
Family Circle Cup. FOX Sports Net

right of first refusal on the
exclusive license to
TennisProView for ATP Tour events
played in the United States
during 1999.

TennisProView technology is the
only interactive real-time,

quantifies, and displays the

for commentators and an instant
virtual replay system for

TennisProView as a real-time,
virtual display for live internet
broadcasting is near completion
and is expected to be released
during the 1999 season. QuesTec's
data capture and real-time motion
analysis techniques offer unique
and informative content and
visualization for the convergence
of today's emerging digital
media.
