Overview
In this project we had to learn and present an emerging technology, showing how it works, why it's important, and what challenges it might have.
Topic Choice: Robotic Umpires

I picked this technology because I play baseball and watch the sport a lot. Seeing how much the game has changed to watch and to play has been a crazy experience

The new ABS System is able to track every single thing about a pitch. The spin rate, what pitch, how fast, the exact location, and even analyze what pitch could be coming next.

My favorite slide is this one below. It makes me wonder if this new ABS System will go as far as little league or even into other sports like football.
What I learned
What I learned
The robotic umpires can make baseball more and more consistent by removing human mistakes from ball and strike calls. This technology could change how players pitch and hit because the game would stay consistent every single time. Umpires roles might also change, since technology will assist them instead of fully replacing them. Even though it improves accuracy, it raises questions about how much technology should be used in sports such as football or basketball. Overall, robotic umpires show how technology can make games better but also bring new challenges.
