Cant wait to see the players talk back to a robot umpire

Ww need hoverboards integrated into the game somehowThis is some real "back to the future" type shit right here..![]()
LOL. Name names?Jerseys that don't get dirty? A few players in the AFL have already come up with that technology.
An electronic whiteboard that is identical to existing boards, just with LED lights? I am so done......
Quickly, I think you mean guernsey not jersey.I mean in future we all imagine afl being a different sports. Like we have robot umpires/runners/water boys. iPads in coaches box instead of computers or atleast iMacs. Jerseys with electronic ads. Jerseys that never get dirty. An electronic line up board ( like the whiteboard coaches use now but electronic)
Why hasn't sport (afl) technology evolved at the same rate as technology in real life today. We have iPhones and 3d TVs yet the afl have computers and a corded phones...
We should be at the stage where we have atleast Electronic goal post. That light up after a goal is scored. Or atleast iPads in the coaches box/get rid of white board!!!!
Seriously,
Afl need to stick with the times. The world is evolving yet afl technology is a 4 years behind.
Afl is a rich company yet they fail to invest in things that matter in future.... The most advanced thing afl done is camera on hat.... Not even in built wtf is wrong with them. Such a joke
Agreed. A sport can't really expect to be taken seriously until it has robot waterboys.
Zinger bails are really fricken useful for tight run out calls.Because everything is better with LEDS! that's why people tune in to t20 cricket, not because of the blokes hitting huge sixes or taking ridiculous catches, it's all about them zing bails baby
OP annoyed that sport isn't using made up technology.
Also, no one is using an iPad/tablet for real work these days. They're still more about consuming content. Sure they could display stats, but assistants are using the same machines to code up games.
That's just flat out wrong sorry dude.
Really?
Speak for yourself - i had an ipad mini and now use an iphone 6+ and i rarely use my desktop physically any more. If something requires more processing power i remote access it from the phone. (Having nbn helps)
Siri can take dictation ten times faster than i can type. The only thing i need to physically sit at the desktop for these days is big screen apps and as a media centre.
I was more referring to tasks that involve more than tapping a few buttons on a screen. What industries are using tablets for any reasonably complex tasks?
Yeah not talking about processing power. I meant anything that requires significant data entry or content creation. Things that an assistant coach would do, like coding game footage would be done more productively with a keyboard for example at this point of time.Define a "reasonably complex" task. If you are referring to something relying on processing power, you would use the server processing and access that from a tablet. If you are referring to everyday work tasks, I can assure you tablets are widely used.
