迪拜計劃明年起兩年舉辦一屆機器人奧運會

After the Olympics, and many other human sports, have become mired in cheating allegations, you might be excited to hear that from 2017, we may no longer need people to compete for gold at all.

在諸如奧運會或者許多其他人類運動陷入了欺詐指控之後，以下這條消息可能會讓你激動起來。據悉，在2017年，我們可能根本不再需要人類爲金牌進行競爭了。

Following the World Drone Prix in Dubai this weekend, which saw a 15-year-old British kid take home the top $250,000 prize, the gulf state has unveiled plans to hold a futuristic Olympics every two years starting in 2017.

本週末在迪拜的世界無人機大獎賽中，一個15歲的英國少年將25萬美金的大獎拿回了家。隨後，該海灣國家宣佈，計劃從2017開始每兩年舉辦一個“世界未來奧運會”。

It is billed to feature nine competitions, including driverless car racing, robotic soccer, robotic running, manned drones racing, robotic swimming, robotic table tennis, robotic wrestling, drone races.

該奧運會將包括9個競賽項目，包括無人駕駛汽車競速、機器人足球、機器人賽跑、機器人游泳、機器人兵乓球、機器人摔跤和無人機競速等。

This means humans could, at the very least, be confined to the sidelines of future sport, with the brains of developers in relevant countries replacing the physical power of the sports teams of old.

這意味着，至少就未來運動會而言，人類將僅限於觀望，而各國研發人員的智力也將會替代傳統運動隊員的身體能力。

Dubai is also creating a new World Federation of Future Sports, whose first head will be UAE government minister Mohammad Abdullah Al Gergawi.

同時，迪拜正在創造一個世界未來體育聯盟，其第一位主席將是阿聯酋國家總理穆罕默德·阿卜杜拉·格伽維

The Government of Dubai says the organization will work with existing global sports bodies to push for international standards and regulatory frameworks around this emerging area.

迪拜政府表示，該組織將與全球現有的體育機構一道爲未來的運動會制定國際標準和監管框架。
