The National Hockey League (NHL) and Cosm announced that Cosm has installed its 10.5K-resolution C360 camera systems in all 32 NHL arenas to capture frame-by-frame, ultra-high-resolution footage of every play in NHL games. <\/p>\n
Cosm installed its C360 10.5K cameras at the glass level across all NHL arenas across the United States and Canada. There are cameras located behind each net and one at each blue line on the ice, ensuring that the NHL has exclusive multi-angle live coverage and on-demand access to key areas of the ice, including plays around the net, potential goals, and potential offside plays at each blue line. <\/p>\n
The ultra-high resolution footage captured by Cosm Media\u2019s cameras also integrates with the NHL\u2019s Puck and Player tracking data (NHL Edge), which enables the NHL to \u201cisolate, enhance, and utilize\u201d footage to help the NHL with its instant replay review process, various player safety initiatives, stat tracking, live broadcasts, and social media content creation. The NHL will also have access to every live camera and on-demand content through Cosm\u2019s CX Video hub. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery play, every player, and every moment is captured and synced across multiple cameras, covering every inch of the ice, so no action is ever missed,\u201d Cosm says. <\/p>\n
\u201cIntegrating Cosm\u2019s C360 camera technology into our arenas helps us continue to deliver our game in the best way possible and brings fans even closer to the speed and thrill of NHL action,\u201d says Stephen McArdle, Chief Operating Officer at NHL. \u201cThe immersive perspectives captured by Cosm\u2019s system provides premium content across our entire ecosystem \u2014 for our fans, coaches, officials, broadcast partners, and more.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cThe NHL is meticulous with its vetting and testing process when it brings new technologies to the ice,\u201d adds Evan Wimer, Head of C360, a division of Cosm Media. \u201cOver the last several years, the League has challenged us to ideate and evolve our technology while refining many aspects of our systems. As we\u2019ve launched our C360 capture systems and cloud-based CX Video Hub in all 32 NHL arenas, the league and its partners have started to unlock valuable immersive capabilities uniquely provided by Cosm. The ability to automate camera functions that visually track every player and the puck all independently through time and space provides enormous utility to the league and the entire NHL ecosystem.\u201d <\/p>\n
After two successful Leafs’ coach’s challenges, we’re still scoreless in Tampa Bay \ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n
Watch Maple Leafs vs. Lightning LIVE on Sportsnet \ud83d\udcfa pic.twitter.com\/2coeSxp1A6<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) February 26, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n As Sportsnet explains<\/a>, it didn\u2019t take long for Cosm\u2019s cameras to be put to work as the NHL returned from its Winter Olympics break on February 25. In last night\u2019s game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Tampa Bay Lightning, Toronto successfully challenged two Tampa Bay goals for missed offside calls. In both cases, officials used Cosm\u2019s high-resolution cameras along the blue line to determine that Tampa Bay players had, in fact, committed an offside infraction missed by the on-ice officials. NHL action happens very fast, and offside calls often come down to a fraction of an inch, so every pixel matters. <\/p>\n Many professional sports leagues are seeking ways to integrate improved imaging technology into their broadcasts and replays. For example, last season marked the first in the NFL that officials used Sony Hawk-Eye camera technology<\/a> to measure all NFL first downs. Sony camera technology<\/a> is an integral part of the NFL\u2019s broadcasts for the fans at home, as well. In Formula 1, new tiny cameras placed inside every driver\u2019s helmet<\/a> have transformed the spectating experience for fans at home. <\/p>\n \u2028Image credits: Cosm, NHL <\/p>\n
