Accessibility initiatives for visually impaired fans in IT

Overview

Cesena FC is launching a new accessibility service titled ‘Connect Me Too’ to assist blind and visually impaired supporters at the Orogel Stadium-Dino Manuzzi.

Developed by CMT Translations, the digital platform utilizes 4G/5G mobile networks to provide real-time, hyper-detailed audio descriptions of match events. The service is designed to go beyond standard radio commentary by describing visual nuances such as player movements, facial expressions, jersey colors, and crowd choreography. The initiative is scheduled to debut during the match against Cremonese on September 12. Fans can access the service via a free mobile app using headphones and a unique code provided by the club.
