You've likely seen some Winter Olympics 2018 coverage, whether on TV or social media. But one of the most unique ways to experience this year's Winter Games can happen right on your face, thanks to virtual reality (VR).

Powered by Intel's True VR platform, the Olympics come alive in VR in a way you won't get watching on television. While not the full breadth of events and limited by the dizzying effect of prolonged mobile VR use, this year's Olympics VR broadcast looks like a healthy preview for how we'll consume sporting events and more in the coming years.
