Reeplayer Camera

The Reeplayer soccer camera has some similarities with Trace and Veo and also some differences. Reeplayer is like Trace in that you lease the camera, vs owning the camera like with Veo and Pixellot. You also have three cameras in Reeplayer/Trace (left, middle, right), unlike Veo which has two cameras (left and right). Reeplayer uses a subscription model like Veo, Trace, Pixellot, and Hudl.

One big one was the addition of a remote for the gimbal which made it easier to control when it was raised up [...]
