Sports events are already packed with energy, but technology is starting to add a new layer of excitement. We’re seeing some pretty cool innovations—like Oklahoma State’s football team using helmets with QR codes so fans can easily contribute to NIL funds for players. It’s a smart, modern twist that gets everyone more involved in the game.
And that’s just one example. Technology is opening up all kinds of possibilities. Imagine watching a game and getting real-time stats, replays from different angles, or even using augmented reality to see how plays unfold right in front of you. It’s changing the way we connect with the sports we love, making the experience more interactive and personal.
Do they not get enough funds from ticket sales? I’m not big into NFL but imagine if cricket bats had QR codes; you could tip the batsman for style points on every six. Now that’s how you get more people into cricket!
As per me, the integration of technology in sports is transforming the fan experience in exciting ways. Innovations like QR codes for NIL contributions not only engage fans but also create a sense of community around the team.
Plus, real-time stats, multiple replay angles, and augmented reality features bring a whole new level of interactivity. These advancements make watching games more immersive and personal, enhancing our connection to the sports we love. Even I am enjoying this too much.
Hello! So there is a recent article on the main LTI website about emersive events. It mentions that the BBC is looking into it virtual events. I guess for sports you will be able to attend the match via a headset and maybe even run around like you are the referee!
if my team wins! –
