I rolled out of bed and headed to the living room. He had the television on and they were explaining all the new technology that would be used in the Superbowl. There was information about cameras, sensors in the uniforms to keep track of heart rates and all sorts of things.
My husband gave me an odd look. “I think we need Doc to explain all this.” I laughed.
“Maybe you should just wait and watch.”
“Well, I am going to get a notebook just in case..”
“You have plenty of time. It’s 3:00 in the morning. The game is this evening. Maybe you could relax for a while.”
Honestly, I am hoping he goes back to bed after breakfast. He may need the extra rest.
I do wonder about the privacy of the players. I wonder if the information they gather from the technology will be made public. I think that knowing that someone is not accelorating and is tired may cross a line if it made public.

That would be better than their friends calling me on my att phone and asking if I will give it to them.
All that technology and commotion for sport that really isn’t worth watching! How anyone can get excited about a sport that is like chess on a big field beats me!
Well different strokes for different folks.
I think technology can go too far, we don’t need to know the players’ heartbeats. Maybe it would be great for the team doctors but not public.
I would think it is a privacy issue as well.
I’m not grilled with a tefnologist
I am not even sure what that is.
Let’s start (I am an employee of Verizon) with the fact that the entire stadium will be running on 5g connectivity.
That will allow for a number of new technologies to be provided to the network in real-time. (there is an FCC-mandated 7 second lag between live and broadcast).
1. 5g
2. 6k cameras (see 5g)!! Because of all the extra bandwidth, this is the first 6k super bowl. We won’t see it (unless you are connected other than a cable model) but it will be there later.
3. 3d camera system using 360-degree filming technology.
I will stop at that point.
Wow, I just wish a Verizon phone would work inside our house. I would guess they tweaked something because the guys have to outside to talk lol – My phone still works but I am not Verizon.
you can actually fix that in about 2 seconds. You just need a Wilson Cellular booster.
i really enjoyed the tech they used in the game!
ordered it. Good to know. You are always helping me.
unless they start wandering about the house talking on their cell phones. then you may not think so!
