Impressive technology applications in sports at CES 2018

Assistive technology applications in the field of sports made a strong impression at CES 2018. Let’s take a look at some interesting inventions at CES 2018.

World boxing champion Floyd Mayweather has just launched a boxing training system based on VR technology. Using this system you can battle with boxing champion who has never lost.

James Williams, CEO of Mayweather Boxing plus Fitness, said: “Through every stage, you will learn how Floyd Mayweather defeats his rivals.”

There are also reflex training systems for athletes, helping athletes measure and practice their reflex speed.

“All major sports teams in the world use systems like this,” said Bob Bouw, sales representative of the Fitlight reflex system.

Meanwhile, a foldable electronic display system is used to measure hand-eye coordination, peripheral vision and many other reflex functions. This system serves the purpose of detecting whether athletes are experiencing a concussion.

Regular testing has also been scientifically proven to improve coordination smoothly – an indication that technology is strengthening for both the mental and physical aspects of sport.

There have been some interesting inventions introduced at the world’s largest consumer electronics exhibition (CES) 2018 in Las Vegas, USA.

Pouring wine without opening the bottle

Pouring wine without opening a bottle – what seems like only in this magic is true with Coravin special equipment. By piercing the cork with a tiny needle, users can pour out the wine while keeping the lid closed. As a result, the taste of expensive wines will be preserved, and the bottle can be kept in the cellar for a long time. However, the price of this product is also quite expensive, up to 999USD.

The TV can be rolled up

Flat-screen TVs, curved-screen TVs, and now even scrollable TVs. LG 65 “OLED TV, using flexible screen technology, when not in use can be rolled into the box to save space. So you can easily carry this TV to Wherever you want, users can use only part of the screen for a variety of purposes, such as checking the weather or adjusting music.

Virtual headset

Listen to music while working, without wearing headphones, nor does it affect anyone – office workers’ dreams will come true with the smart device of an Israeli startup.

The system, called Noveto, can track faces and shape the position of the ears, and then transmit the sound straight there. This type of virtual headset promises to be widely used in cars or entertainment centers.

Advanced technologies are applied in sports (Part 2)

Shoes and balls with electronic chips

Attaching chips to shoes and balls has now become relatively common. Initially the technology paid little attention, but in late 2011, Adidas in one of its advertising campaigns gave famous player Messi the use of these “smart shoes“.

In addition to using the best materials (super light, super durable), the design best suited to each player’s condition, it also has an electronic chip under the shoe.

This chip is capable of collecting all data during the match to know how Messi played in 90 minutes: how many kilometers run, the highest speed, the average speed, power, etc. so that can give diet, training appropriate for Messi in particular and other football stars in general.

Swimwear speeds up

FINA’s Federation Internationale de Natation has approved athletes who use swimwear to reduce water resistance from the 2000 Olympic Trials.

Until the 2008 Olympics, Speedo’s LZR Racer swimwear went above all to become the most popular swimwear for swimmers. Since Speedo LZR Racer sets, strange numbers have been recorded on the green track.

Only in 2008, there were more than 40 new records on the established swimming lanes, this number was even double what the swimmers did during the 30 years before 2008. Of course. setting new records can also be set due to many other objective factors such as diet, exercise, mood etc.

Many legendary swimmers have broken many records when wearing this special swimsuit

But a series of set records also partly demonstrate that this particular swimsuit will help many athletes reach their destination a few hundred seconds earlier, which is more than enough for sports. Competitive on time like swimming.

Chip

Position mounted on shoes

Since then, the installation of electronic chips into balls and competition shoes has also been formed. The chip attached to the outside ball to measure the parameters, also intended to combine with the hawk eye system, determine whether the goals of the players are valid or not.

iOS 10 officially launched worldwide

On the morning of September 14, Apple officially launched the iOS 10 version to global users.

Apple’s new iOS 10 update has a capacity of more than 1 GB, this is also the largest iOS update version of the “apple house” in 2016.

iOS 10 was first introduced by Apple at the 2016 WWDC Developers Conference in June, supporting 10 important new features. Highlights include a redesigned lock screen with richer notifications, the ability to interact quickly with apps and expand the 3D Touch option.

In particular, Raise to wake is a new feature capable of waking up the phone lock screen when it is raised, allowing you to have an overview of notifications or updates. The new notification system can work with 3D Touch, allowing you to view and interact with them.

Siri now has better context recognition. It will make intelligent suggestions based on your current location, calendar, contacts, recent contacts, etc.It all relies on Apple’s increasingly mature artificial intelligence system, like what Google has brought to Google Now.

The Photos app is also smarter in detecting and classifying images on the device. The device will group related images together, such as trips, photos last weekend or last year … Then it can automatically revise the film to highlight a specific trip or event.

The key point of iOS 10 is to improve iMessage, the most frequently used app on iOS. It can play videos right in the message stream, triple emoji zoom, and message content can be converted into emoji characters with just one touch. Users can also send videos and attach handwriting to this video.

Devices that can be upgraded to iOS 10 include: iPhone 5 or later, 6th generation iPod Touch, iPad mini 2 or later, iPad 4, iPad Air and iPad Pro models.

Currently, to upgrade to iOS 10 users only need to connect to the internet, go to Settings> General> Software Update.
