Tokyo Olympics: From robots to self-driving cars, Japan s tech prowess is on display at the Games

July 23, 2021 The Olympics is a chance for Japan to showcase cutting-edge robotics, automation and computing. Reuters Our Tokyo Trail series looks at key issues and athletes in the run-up to the 2020 Olympics , which are scheduled for late July. This is the third of three stories on the use of technology and innovation at the Games. As soon as Tokyo was named the host city for the 2020 Olympic Games, the Japanese government – with the enthusiastic support of companies in the nation’s hi-tech sectors – decided it would make the occasion the most innovative and technologically advanced sporting event ever staged. It was a sensible approach. While Beijing in 2008 opted for a demonstration of raw power on a grand scale, complete with pyrotechnics, and London four years later brought out Mr Bean, James Bond and the national sense of humour, for Japan it was a chance to showcase cutting-edge robotics , automation and computing.

6 Kenyan Stars of all time who failed to win Olympic gold

6 Kenyan Stars of all time who failed to win Olympic gold Paul Tergat [Standard] Some of his iconic performances include 16 victories out of 18 races in 1994 and the fastest time that year- a sub-1:44 that is yet to be matched by any other athlete to date. Seventeen years since he hanged his spikes, Kipketer is still the second-fastest athlete of all time over 800 metres. During his prime on the track, Kipketer set the world record then later broke his own record, twice, all in 1997. He was undefeated for three-year consecutive years. He ran eight of the 17 currently all-time fastest times. His was a complete dominance of the distance, a reign that lasted over a decade But despite winning successive World titles in 1995, 1997 and 1999, Kipketer never won an Olympic gold during his career.

Are Middle Lanes Fastest in Track and Field?

This content is shared here because the topic may interest Snopes readers; it does not, however, represent the work of Snopes fact-checkers or editors. As a short-distance track and field runner in high school and college, I often found myself wondering which of the eight or sometimes nine lanes on the track was the fastest. It was conventional wisdom that the middle lanes – lanes three through six – were the best. This idea, in a way, is baked into the rules of track and field. In events with multiple heats – from the college level all the way to the Olympics – the people who run faster times in earlier heats are assigned to middle lanes in later heats. In other words, the fastest runners are rewarded with what are, supposedly, better lane assignments.
