Inside MLB’s 2025 Tech Revolution: Robo Umps, AI Broadcasts & the Future of Baseball

On-Field Technology Transforming MLB Hawk-Eye Statcast Tracking System At the heart of MLB’s on-field tech is the Statcast tracking system, which by 2025 is a fully Hawk-Eye-powered platform. In every MLB stadium, an array of a dozen or more Hawk-Eye cameras captures the 3D position of the baseball, all players, and even the bat, dozens of times per second hawkeyeinnovations.com. This generates an enormous data stream: pitch velocity, spin rate, precise location at the plate, exit velocity and launch angle of batted balls, sprint speed of runners, outfielders’ routes to the ball, and more – all measured instantly and accurately.

No Signal? No Problem – Starlink’s Direct-to-Cell Satellites Are Eliminating Dead Zones

Direct-to-Cell Revolution: What It Is and When It Will Work in Your Country

In August 2022, SpaceX and T-Mobile announced a partnership to add Direct-to-Cell texting via Starlink satellites, enabling roaming coverage for remote areas using SpaceX’s constellation. SpaceX launched the first Direct-to-Cell–equipped Starlink satellites in early 2024, and by mid-2025 there were about 400 such satellites in orbit. On January 8, 2024, SpaceX successfully sent a text message from a regular smartphone via a Starlink satellite through T-Mobile’s network. Starlink’s Direct-to-Cell service is expected to start with texting in 2024, add voice calls in 2025, and deliver modest data speeds later.

Free Satellite Internet: Myth or Reality? The Cheapest Options Revealed

Free Satellite Internet: Myth or Reality? The Cheapest Options Revealed

In 2018, LinkSure announced plans for a 272-satellite constellation to provide free global Wi-Fi by 2026. Quika offered a mostly free satellite broadband in parts of the Middle East and Africa, delivering about 3 Mbps down/1 Mbps up, but installation and a hardware deposit were still required. There is currently no genuinely free satellite internet for consumers; all major providers require paid subscriptions and specialized equipment because satellites and ground infrastructure cost millions. Amazon’s Project Kuiper aims for affordable service and is expected to start in late 2025. In emergencies, SpaceX Starlink has provided free service and terminals in Ukraine
