The World Equestrian Festival, CHIO Aachen, represents a long tradition. Equestrian competi- tions have been organized in the old “Kaiserstadt” for far more than one hundred years. Much has happened since then.
The glorious show grounds in the Aa- www.chioaachen.de | facebook.com/chioaachen 45 chen Soers are world famous. The stadiums belong to the most impressive sport facilities in the world. In recent years much has been invested in the digital in- frastructure which makes the CHIO Aachen the most modern of large German sport facilities.
Specialists in the area of 3D animation have created virtual worlds. Prizewinning developers have created highly mo- dern apps plus additional special features and apps together with the technology partner SAP. Much of this can already be experienced – whether in free WiFi with a Smartphone on the show grounds or as a “se- cond screen” on the TV monitor. Highly modern tech- nologies make the sport ever more attractive, more transparent and diverse, and more is yet to come. Today the CHIO Aachen organizers are intensively carrying on research in the area of real time analysis and tracking.
The digital CHIO Aachen will continue with further development – and the tradition upda- ted through regular innovations.
