Indian service provider Tata Communications has completed a proof of concept of live OTT streaming enabled by Net Insight’s platform with Formula One Management.

Tata’s live OTT platform delivered a live feed from the Singapore Grand Prix to Formula One Management’s Technical HQ in Biggin Hill, UK, with no time lag between the live broadcast and the footage viewed on the app.

Mehul Kapadia, Managing Director of F1 Business at Tata Communications, said, “Technology continues to evolve at great speed and that is why we, together with Formula One Management, continuously work together to test new capabilities. Delivering a successful low latency feed to an app is another landmark step in our shared innovation journey.”

TV technology company Net Insight earlier announced Tata as the first public company for its Live OTT solution.
