Microsoft just announced an extended partnership with the NFL that will bring AI and more advanced data analytics to football. Microsoft's flagship Surface devices have been a mainstay on NFL sidelines for years. They're recognizable thanks to the blue cases they wear — which aren't available for purchase.
Now, the Surface devices that are part of the Sideline Viewing System (SVS) will feature a Copilot logo along the back. The system will use Copilot to identify details such as what formation a team was in when a turnover occurred.
