This was the first time that wTVision developed a project in Indonesia, reinforcing the company’s expansion in Asia.Elections CG, wTVision’s product to manage electoral projects, was the chosen solution to answer the client’s request, allowing the integration of the official data through the client’s data provider, and the implementation of augmented reality and virtual graphics.

The journalist also had an iPad that handled the playout of virtual graphics. wTVision’s designers handled the graphics design and implementation, while the company’s operators managed the graphics playout.
