Due to COVID-19 the 81st Hahnenkamm-Race in Kitzbühel had to take place for the first time in history without any onsite audience.

Nevertheless to give the audience at home in front of their TV-screens the possibility to cheer on their favourite athletes, the idea for this web-app was developed together with WWP-Group.

For development and hosting a cooperation with WH-Interactive was established.

In Detail

The web-app can be accessed without any registration and download from modern browsers either on smartphones or on computers. The users have the possibility to send their applause in four different ways: Clap hands, ring bell, blow horn, cheer.

The live-generated applause-signal is visualized on the „A1 5Gigameter“ in the finish-area and made audible in the audio-signal on TV.
