Olympics watch

The Olympic Games may see athletes running faster and jumping further and higher but it seems that, where innovative technology is concerned, records are rather less likely to be broken. The London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOGOC) stated early on that the technology used in 2012 "will be based on that used in previous games". Only technology which is commercially available and proven to be reliable by the third quarter of 2010 will be used. This is known as the 2010 \´technology freeze\´ or \´lock down\´.
