Satellite will be used to live stream interviews and backhaul action video clips of the Punch Powertrain Solar Team as they compete in the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge \u2013 a 3,000 km solar car race across the Australian outback from October 8, 2017 to October 12, 2017 \u2013 with Newtec, Network Innovations, VRT Sandbox and Pacific Life Media today announcing their collaboration for the event. \u201cAt previous editions of the race, communication with our fans in Belgium was limited to providing small video clips\u201d, said Thierry Garritsen, spokesperson at the Punch Powertrain Solar Team. \u201cTransmission of these clips was a very time-consuming process, as it included driving up to 150 km away to find a broadband connection. This year, we were looking for a solution that allows us to be in live contact with our home base without too much hassle.\u201d Garritsen continued. \u201cThanks to the IP satellite solution provided by Newtec, Network Innovations, Pacific Live Media and VRT Sandbox, we can now go online and live stream on Facebook from wherever we are, daily.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.macpcguys.co.uk\/iphone-8-shell-case.html\">iphone 8 shell case<\/a> We can take ad hoc questions from our audience, on top of providing additional action clips for delayed viewing.
