A chapter in 21st Century Sports, 2020, pp 277-291 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract To illustrate how future technologies will shape future sports, Subirana and Laguarta explore an imaginary future—following a fictional character and her family through a day in their lives. They highlight potential applications of technologies in the fields of the Internet of things, robotics and automation, information processing, communications, and legal programming in new sports. The chapter also explores potential sports that, beyond entertainment, could solve real-life problems or otherwise improve society with examples like improved human relationships with animals, increased safety from environmental dangers, and more efficient smart cities.
