Microsoft imagines the future of football, when NFL fans could get closer to their favorite teams and players than ever before.

What if game day was no longer confined to your television screen, but covered your room and took over your coffee table? Today, we shared a glimpse of that future in a brand new concept video unveiled at the Super Bowl 50 panel discussion, “The Future of Football: How Technology Could Shape the Next 50 Years of the Game.”

Today’s panel focused on the impact of technology on the field, in the back office and for fans at home, so it felt both fitting and exciting to share what we think might be possible with Microsoft HoloLens, the world’s first fully untethered holographic computer, and NFL football.

With HoloLens, running Windows 10, your favorite players could be brought to life through high-definition, 3D displays – allowing you to experience the athleticism and skills behind their stats. That game-changing play could pop up as a 3D hologram so you could view the field from all angles, all while your fantasy scores update in real time, without the need for you to look down at another screen.
