In Formula 1, where these sorts of things are both technologically easier and very useful, many forms of driver aid have already been banned. Because viewers want to see men drive cars, not robots.
So I can't imagine the governing bodies of lower-tech sports getting on board with these sorts of things.
- bigethan 11y agoFormula 1 is especially amusing to me. Rather than saying "no tech" it says "not this tech" which just invites loophole finders. eg. the so called "F-Duct" (http://www.formula1-dictionary.net/f_duct.html http://www.formula1-dictionary.net/f_duct.html) - you're not just watching drivers drive, you're watching engineering teams compete with the world's best drivers at their disposal. What would a Serena type athlete be able to do with even more information? It's not steroids, it's data. What would Tim Duncan and Greg Popovitch be capable of with even more knowledge? I'd kinda like to know and see.
