Join us live at the Cybathlon 2020 Global Edition

Livestream with races and commentary

The livestream will devote one hour to each discipline, and show the final of three race attempts for all of the teams. The end of the hour will feature the final races of the top four teams as well as a brief celebration of the winning pilot and team. Rounding out the pre-recorded races and live commentary, the programme will feature a behind the scenes look in which viewers will learn the stories of some of the teams. With a host presenter from ETH Zurich and a UK commentator, experts will discuss recent advances and performance of assistive technologies, as well as, societal acceptance and inclusion of people with physical disabilities. Viewers can expect programme subtitles in several languages and translated into sign language.

After the weekend, all the races (i.e., full-length coverage of each team¡¯s three race attempts) will be accessible on the platform. ¡°Coronavirus has meant that the teams have had to deal with a great deal of ambiguity, changes, and adjustments in the run-up to the competition. It¡¯s fantastic that so many have given their all and are taking part,¡± says Roland Sigrist, Executive Director for the Cybathlon. In this eventful year, we hold to the motto: It¡¯s all about being there.
