Imagine you’re watching your favorite team on your couch or in person. What sports technologies do you think are impacting that game the most? Perhaps the coaches and front office staff that utilize a number of different data-gathering tools to better analyze X’s and O’s? What about the athletes who are a product of hundreds of hours of training with wearables and sensors that measure and quantify every movement? How about the fact that the stadium or arena hosting the game is a fully connected high-tech entertainment theater?
Or, what about the lighting? For the winner of the 2017 SportTechie Award for Outstanding Sports Technology, we ask you to consider the lights that illuminate the game itself.
