gadget page goal line technology there is a lot of discussion about goal line technology here is how one of the systems being tried out works how hawk-eye works from wikipedia the hawk-eye system was first developed by dr paul hawkins in 1999 the hawk-eye system has since been improved by engineers at roke manor research limited and is an existing technology currently used in cricket tennis and snooker it is based on the principle of triangulation using the visual images and timing data provided by high-speed video cameras at different locations around the area of play the system uses six spread out high speed cameras to triangulate and track the ball in flight the software calculates the ball s location for each frame by identifying the pixels that correspond to the ball through at least two cameras the margin of error for the system is 3.6 millimetres the software can track the ball and predict the flight path even if several cameras are being blocked and as long as 25 percent of it is visible the high speed cameras allow the ball to be tracked even if they only cross the line for a fraction of a second the proposal involves placing six cameras in the stands at each end of the playing area at a total cost of £250,000 the system is not realtime so play has to stop for the referee or another match official to review the disputed play critics of the system claim the system will slow down the game and that the statistical margin of error is too large would it stop mistakes such as over andy carroll s goal in the fa cup final?
