As a motorsports fan, I know exactly what he's on about. Being able to actually see what happened from essentially a driver's perspective and essentially live rather than having to wait half an hour or more to get an interview with a driver who barely remembers what hqppened anyway makes a huge difference. Now that cameras and transmission hardware have become so much smaller and lighter, putting them in athletes gear isn't something to shrug off.

We already have something very similar to the end product he was alluding to - they're called video games. Sports are popular with most people because they preserve the human element as paramount. I'm all for sports technology in lots in ways, for example, aiding the referees in making correct calls but there would definitely be a point at which talent, fitness, practice and hard work would become secondary to the processing power of your teams dugout. This is the point when it fails to be sport in the traditional sense which is recognisable as physical competition between 2 people/teams or an individual versus the environment such as climbing. Either way the body and it's mastery of technique and manual equipment tends to be central, not processing speeds and bandwidth.

Exactly what I was thinking. Sure the players themselves can still make mistakes and have free will (I'll just assume that they have for the sake of argument) but won't this end up just being 2 computers playing against each other? Edit: In hindsight, I guess that an amateur team with amazing tech would still lose against a pro team with lousy tech. So I guess skills will always beat tech anyway.

No it doesn't remove it. The system can tell the players what to do but its up to the players to carry it out. Which will define a level of fitness that the position they are on the field needs. Plus the players can potentially ignore the system if they wanted.

@coolconk

What he didn't mention in this video is the downsides. If you're speaking to someone who has Google Glass on, you have no idea if they're recording via their Google Glass, because there isn't even a red light or any indication to tell you you're being filmed. Say for example you're speaking to a work colleague, saying something like " I disagree with how our boss has handled this, that and the other". Who's to say that colleague won't show the boss what you said on their google glass system, resulting in you maybe not getting that salary raise or promotion? Instead, it's given to the worker who secretly recorded you. People counter that though by saying "people can record you on smartphones secretly now" but you have to basically raise or strategically place the phone somewhere & it's far more likely to be seen. People spend far too much time on smartphones anyway, so why should we glue them to our faces? On to the sports part, he mentioned about a possible system telling an NFL player where the ball is going to land, or where a player is open, which to me, takes away the skill of the player. Stick one on every players helmet, if a system tells the player that someone's open, that can make every players IQ the same. Onto Oculus Rift, if someone wants to experience something so bad, like be a professional athlete, why not work hard to get to that experience? No, let's just detach ourselves from the real world, put a screen on our face and pretend, that will be much better I'm sure.

And yet he never clarifies that Google Glass is not AR. It doesn't have nor processing power nor large enough display to overlay information over video feed. As for sports.. It may draw some audience, but at the end of the day it simplifies the essence of sports. One has to rely on the information on screen and dump his instincts. By this logic anyone can play football - just follow the green marker. Besides, the machine calculating data will have its own bias.

AR will be just as big as VR, but to do what he's saying, you need VR. Now, for those experiences, it will be more impactful than cinema because VR can really put you in that place. I think he's right, but he didn't explain it very well. Also, for things to be truly experienced by another person in VR, you really need a 360 degree camera so the user can look around themselves.
