Augmented Reality in Air Racing with Real Aircraft

It seems that reality and virtual reality are gradually getting closer. The Rocket Racing League organization decided to try to apply augmented reality in racing real aircraft. At the same time, a person controls the plane from his iPhone mobile device using a special application. Everyone else, that is, viewers, see the marks of augmented reality on a special screen.

So far, this is only the augmented reality system tests conducted by the Rocket Racing League, but next year it will all be used in competitions. In addition, there are ideas about introducing an augmented reality system for auto racing or any other sports.

The idea is quite interesting, although somewhat strange. But since people like it, one might think that augmented reality in sports will be used more and more.
