Modern Technologies in Sport, with Reference to Video Technologies

Abstract

Modern society is characterized by the global use of advanced technology. One of the spheres of life where technology has great use value is sport. In this paper, we deal with modern technologies that improve sports and results in it. We especially deal with the possibilities of video technology on the sports result itself, the safety of athletes, but also on fairness in decision-making, on economic aspects through the media and the like. The challenges lie in the poor training of users, the lack of creativity to use this technology in a proper way that can achieve better results. Some of the technologies mentioned are video systems in football, water polo and tennis. These are technologies that are now visible and well known to everyone, regardless of whether they believe that this technology has a negative or positive effect on sports. In modern sports, various technologies are implemented that affect the result, whether they are in the form of clothing or protective equipment. These technologies as well as video technology can greatly contribute to improved sports performance in a variety of ways.
