The Owl AI raises $11M to revolutionize sports officiating. Former Olympic skier Jeremy Bloom's Boulder-based startup secured seed funding to expand AI judging technology beyond the X Games, where it successfully tested automated scoring in January.

Meta's smart glasses hit 2 million sales milestone. Ray-Ban Meta glasses reached the 2 million unit mark since their October 2023 launch, with production scaling to 10 million annually by 2026.

The system requires individual mobile tickets to enable comprehensive data collection and tailored promotions for merchandise and concessions.
