For lack of good results on the floors of NBA (American basketball league), the Sacremento Kings remain at the top in high technology.

You've no doubt heard of the Bitcoin, this virtual currency. Note that the Sacremento franchise is the first professional sports team to use it.It will indeed be possible as of March 1 to purchase items from the official store and even tickets to attend the games via bitcoins.Not content with being a pioneer in bitcoin, the Sacremento Kings have announced the upcoming use of Google Glass and even released a teaser ehealth (see ehealth at the top of the article).

See you on January 24

The Kings want to provide a whole new experience for spectators at the Sleep train arena by retransmitting the images on giant screens, to viewers and other NBA fans. New perspectives via Google Glass which they are trying to optimize in collaboration with the company CrowdOptic.On the occasion of the Indiana Pacers reception on January 24, 2020, not only the announcer or the cheerleaders will be equipped with smart health connected glasses but also, and above all, the players of River City.At the moment, we still know too little about the real use of Google Glass during this meeting. If it is hoped that the players will wear the glasses during the match, their use should be limited to the periphery of the field: during the pre-match or half-time chat, during the warm-up or during the various timeout.

New perspectives

Either way, the Sacremento Kings are breaking new ground and this may be just the beginning. Who would not like to experience a sporting encounter with their favorite player through their eyes?This also opens up many perspectives for television broadcasters.Jim Kovach of CrowdOptic says:

A long time ago, I played in the NFL and the vision that I miss is that on the ground. If you are one of the players, you have the best view.

One thing is certain, the use of these Google Glass on the floors of NBA is expected to reproduce. The Sacremento Kings have already announced plans to reuse them in the future.
