Journal Title: AJIT-e: Bilişim Teknolojileri Online Dergisi - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 13
Abstract
These days, the image of reality and the image of virtuality are often being discussed. Reflection of the reality or carrying out various practices by pretending that they are real can be observed in many areas. Are the signs of reality different from the signs of the things which are shown as if they are real? Comprehension of these signs and integration of real world signs with the world which is shown as real is also an observed case. Within this context, although the experiences and virtual worlds created with new media technologies in virtual environment reveal the contrast between reality and unreality, these kinds of virtual worlds make life easier with practices in some areas. In the study, the environment which is created with technological advances like robot eye or simulation and the environment which draws a line or sometimes crosses the line between reality and virtuality will be discussed in the context of “sports activities”. The signs about performances of sports people and technological features, how they are transferred to virtual environment; after being given meaning what kind of enhancement environment will be created in reality are the questions that will be examined and answered.
