Over the last several years numerous companies have stepped up to the plate and developed software and hardware solutions to help athletes and coaches stay ahead of the game. One of those companies is Eon Sports VR.
Giuliano's Comment: Eon Sports VR has developed technology to help athletes of all ages provide a virtual reality type of training that is much  safer than on-the-field training. It also allows for more mental preparation. This device is a strap on headset that will bring players to show a virtual environment so they can train as if they were live and on the field. I believe that this technology will help with prevent injury at practice, and will bring more mental preparation for the game. However, it will take away from the physical and active  moments. Players need to prepare for how hard they are going to get hit so they can bounce right back up and keep playing. This technology might help an organization, but should not be overused.

  1. This is a great and innovative idea but I see this technology translating more to video games than to real life sports. It's a technology gamers have been waiting on for a very long time. Athletes in my opinion need to actually practice with their other teammates because you cannot predict human error. Human error is a natural part of games and it actually leads to some of the bigger plays that can happen.
