In an effort to jazz up its broadcast of the 2024 Paris Olympics, NBC is planning to use five heart rate monitors to show the reactions of parents of certain athletes during events.

For example, viewers would see the heart rate of the parent of a swimmer or runner as they watched their child compete on screen along with the actual event.

The Olympics will not be the first time NBC Sports has tried out a heart rate display, having used it at the U.S. Track and Field Outdoor Championships last July, aired on CNBC. In addition to monitoring heart rates, NBC is also trying to get celebrities more involved and draw more eyeballs to the Olympics.
