HI-POD shoots Texas High School Football ALLStar Game @ Alamodome
(7/20/2010- San Antonio, TX ) HI-POD put the Mobile HI-POD to the test at the ALAMODOME by covering the "high scoring " shootout between the North and South Texas High School Allstars. By positioning the mobile HI-POD 10 -15 yards in front of or behind the line-of-scrimmage, HI-POD was able to obtain a HIGH DEFINITION SHOT (with one camera) that rivaled a local TV broadcast.. By recording only the plays and not the in between play time, the HI-POD operator was able to encapsulate the game into "just the juicy stuff".
Like the original "chapman crane" that moves up and down the track on one side of the game, the MOBILE HI-POD was able to obtain beautiful line-of-scrimmage footage of the game. But unlike the clunky 5-person operated Chapman crane, the MOBILE HI-POD , is one person that can move into the endzone when the game is in the red zone. Also the MOBILE HI-POD is able to walk around the entire field 5-6 times during a game to find and capture the best shot possible of the game.

HI-POD begins working with SoccerLab.
HI-POD has begun working with Soccerlab and Sportvas in Europe. By capturing aerial videography of a match or practice, HI-POD has been able to provide the video angle that makes best use of the SportVAS Video analysis software. As a key supplier of Video analysis software to the "soccer" industry, Sportvas recognized the complimentary relationship of HI-POD'S aerial camera system to their software. HI-POD is proud to be involved with Soccerlab and SportVAS and looks forward to great things to come.
17ft Mobile HI-POD example footage
This is a good example of what the 17ft mobile HI-POD can do. THIS IS NOT THE 31FOOT ENDZONE CAMERA. The mobile HI-POD is almost half the height of the HI-POD Endzone Camera. Keep in mind that it is very easy to convert back and forth between the mobile HI-POD and the 31 foot Endzone HI-POD Camera.
No Gamble using HI-POD for Rugby event in VEGAS
HI-POD covered the USASEVENS Rugby invitational tournament in VEGAS on Valentine’s Weekend. There was a HI-POD covering every game on all 14 fields- Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Each game was immediately converted to dvd- Standard Def and High Definition- for all to see and purchase.
HI-POD stays dry at Phoenix , AZ REACH 11 Complex
The US Soccer Winter Showcase concluded last week in Phoenix, AZ at the Reach 11 Complex. Once again HI-POD was contracted to shoot all games, deliver goal highlights, fulfill standard def and high Def DVD requests and stream the games on the internet. All 241 games were recorded successfully.
But mother nature put HI-POD to the test on Monday. Stiff winds, freezing cold, and driving rains did not make the job easy. Sure enough all scheduled games were successfully recorded and processed. Gusts of 50 miles per hour , constant rain all day, and steadily dropping temperatures pushed the HI-POD crew to the limit.
HI-POD gets wet with Water Polo
Another sport to find the HI-POD interesting is Water Polo. HI-POD operator Nick Baba is using the HI-POD to shoot all the CIF Water Polo playoffs and break down the games with match analysis software.
HI-POD Prepares for Army of operators in Phoenix
HI-POD has arrived in Phoenix with an abundance of units to train operators for the upcoming US Soccer Winter showcase. With as many as 30 units ready to train operators, the HI-POD Van moved into town like a military operation.
“If we use two units to train 30 guys, the process would lack the hands-on that makes for quicker learning” stated HI-POD President Enrique Morales, “and would lengthen the training period considerably. Continued Morales, “In this way we are able to maximize training retention as well as cost per training session.”
The goal of the training was twofold: train operators for the upcoming job (US Soccer ) , but also certify operators in the use of hi-pod for not only soccer but for the other popular sports that occur in other parts of the year. We are preparing operators to become future freelance hi-pod franchisees.
