The relay video for NTV’s broadcast "DRAMATIC BASEBALL 2022" of professional baseball games was captured at Canon’s Volumetric Video System for stadium & arena. This is the world's first attempt to provide volumetric video for a baseball broadcast.

More than 80 high-resolution cameras were installed around the entire perimeter of the Tokyo Dome to capture images. Taking advantage of the fact that volumetric video can be generated in real time, it was frequently used for instant replays in TV broadcasts. As a highlight replay of the game, it was also utilized on the program's official YouTube channel, Twitter, and for broadcasting and distributing sports programs.
