The European Broadcasting Union is enabling sports fans tuned to radio coverage of the Zurich 2014 European Athletics Championships this week to see as well as hear the action through a new service called Visual Radio, a live data slideshow showing results and pictures from the event, the EBU said Wednesday (http://bit.ly/1nPxcTj). Broadcasters that carry feeds from the event can beam the slideshow to DAB+ receivers with a built-in color screen, or to hybrid digital or FM receivers through a new RadioDNS server that EBU has created for the event, it said. Broadcasters can also embed the slideshow on their websites for accessing the data online, it said.
