Hello everyone! For some time now, I have been thinking about how technologies are changing sports and an active lifestyle. It seems that today we are on the threshold of a completely new stage, where the usual types of training are enriched with digital elements. This is not just an addition, but a real transformation. And you know, this inspires me incredibly.
For example, hybrid sports. Have you heard of this? This is something between traditional physical activity and digital technologies. Imagine: morning jogging turns into a game where you run away from virtual zombies or compete with a friend who is on the other side of the world. All this is possible thanks to augmented reality technologies. Or VR training is a real breakthrough for those who do not like gyms. You can box with virtual opponents, ride a bike through the Alpine landscape, or dance as if you were at a huge party.
But how did all this come about? It seems that the development of wearable technology and the pandemic, which forced us to look for new ways to stay active without leaving home, played a key role here. Technologies like AR and VR have become widespread, making training interesting and accessible even for those who previously avoided sports.
On the other hand, hybrid sports are not only entertainment. They are an opportunity for those who want to feel part of something bigger, compete and communicate with people from different parts of the world. And most importantly, they are a great way to motivate yourself to move.
Of course, such technologies have their downsides. For example, not all sports are available without expensive equipment, and some devices are still inaccessible to many. There is also a safety issue: running around the city in AR glasses can end in a collision with an obstacle.
And then I thought: where can I read more about these sports? If anyone knows a site that talks about hybrid training, how it works and what technologies are used, please tell me. I would really like to delve deeper into this topic, to learn more about this interesting area.
