The U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum in Colorado Springs features advanced interactive technology, allowing visitors to engage with exhibits through personalized profiles and immersive experiences. Curator Boyd Smith envisions future museums with increased accessibility and robotic guides. As athletes prepare for the 2024 Paris Olympics, they're eager to experience traditional activities missed during the pandemic-affected Tokyo Games, such as exploring the host city and attending other events. The opening ceremony, directed by Thomas Jolly, is set to be a grand four-hour spectacle. Meanwhile, the Philippines celebrates 100 years of Olympic participation, with 22 athletes competing in Paris and sharing their journeys through platforms like HOMESTRETCH. Among the challenges for Paris are security concerns, budget overruns, and the cleanliness of the Seine River for aquatic events.
