What changes have the development of science and technology brought to the Olympic Games?

When it comes to the promotion of science and technology to the Olympic Games, the Internet invented by the British has also contributed: at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, which is known as the "Centennial Olympic Games", the first official website of the Olympic Games finally appeared. At that time, people were not familiar with it, and most journalists covering the Olympic Games still used fax machines to send articles. The functions of computers are basically typing and writing articles. But the number of official website hits for the Atlanta Olympic Games is 6.5438+89 million, which is already an amazing number. No, just four years later, the number of official website hits in Sydney Olympic Games soared to11300 million. By the time of the London Olympic Games, the Internet, as the most powerful weapon to spread the Olympic Games, has completely subverted the way people get information. Compared with the layout of newspapers, the broadcast time, the capacity of TV, and the sound, image and data information that the Internet can provide, it is even more massive. Any portal website is embarrassed to say that it doesn't have hundreds of millions of hits every day. Not only news organizations publish information, but also a large number of netizens share this information through various social media. For this reason, the London Olympic Organizing Committee and the London Municipal Government have provided 1800 wireless network access points, so that even subway stations (subway platforms only, excluding subway money) can use free Wi-Fi signals, which also saves the trouble of the audience impatiently waving their mobile phones to find signals. It is worth mentioning that the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games has many things to be proud of: the coverage of wireless network signals has been realized for the first time in the Olympic area, and it is very convenient for journalists to publish and surf the Internet. Everyone (including athletes, coaches and spectators) no longer needs to hold computers to look for network cables everywhere. In addition, the TV broadcast time of the Beijing Olympic Games reached 3,600 hours, exceeding the sum of all previous Olympic Games. This is also an amazing number.
