Brief description of the proposal:
The wearable device is a type of robot fighting-themed performance entertainment that can accommodate audiences and others to watch and participate nearby. Operators can control their robots through the wearable device to perform fighting. The robots that successfully beat the opponent score points. All manipulation data, images, and sounds throughout the process can be transmitted and streamed via 5G in real-time, and the audience can watch the game can through the camera on-site or the perspective of the robot. Through 5G combined with the live broadcast and imaging technology, online audiences can participate in the game as much as possible. They can watch the game from the camera or the perspective of the robot. They can also feel the scene’s passion in a 360-degree surround-view as if they are on site. The connectivity with 5G can be explained from four aspects. Controlling the robot to perform attacks, kicks, defense, dodging, and other actions utilize the 5G high-speed transmission raindrop delay’s characteristics. Besides, the robot has a camera installed on the face. The camera allows the audience to choose one side of the robot’s first perspective, enhancing the immersive experience. Among them, VR live broadcast is realized by using the high-speed transmission characteristics of 5G. The drone captures live images through the large bandwidth and low latency of 5G, realizing VR through 5G. Viewers need mobile phones to watch real-time scores, all of which require connected somatosensory equipment that can transmit a large amount of data, which is why the device is enabled through 5G.

Compared with the gimmicks commonly used in popular foreign fighting TV shows, this proposal’s innovation lies in the research and development of team-based creative robots, 5G, VR, 3D multi-view video viewing, and new robot battle modes. Fighting King breaks traditional performance’s existing geographical boundaries by combining wearable devices and 5G with 3D real-time multi-view applications. The dynamic exhibition opens up a whole new market.
