Guarantee the technology only stretches from post to post. So the sensor isn't active behind the post. 

Except the ball went between the posts to go behind it. It's literally impossible not to.

I know people are going to moan about it because moaning about technology is just what you do in the 2019/20 season.


But you gotta assume that's just freak. I mean the technology is probably the best technology that we have in the sport, it's accurate 99.999% of the time. But if it relies on LOS and the keeper literally smothers the ball and carries it backwards then it's not going to be tracked?

 

 

Of course people are going to moan! Literally goal line technology is there for one reason and it ****ed up.

Method of operation[edit]

All Hawk-Eye systems are based on the principles of triangulation using visual images and timing data provided by a number of high-speed video cameras located at different locations and angles around the area of play.[6] For tennis there are ten cameras. The system rapidly processes the video feeds from the cameras and ball tracker. A data store contains a predefined model of the playing area and includes data on the rules of the game.

In each frame sent from each camera, the system identifies the group of pixels which corresponds to the image of the ball. It then calculates for each frame the position of the ball by comparing its position on at least two of the physically separate cameras at the same instant in time. A succession of frames builds up a record of the path along which the ball has travelled. It also "predicts" the future flight path of the ball and where it will interact with any of the playing area features already programmed into the database. The system can also interpret these interactions to decide infringements of the rules of the game.[6]

The system generates a graphic image of the ball path and playing area, which means that information can be provided to judges, television viewers or coaching staff in near real-time.

The tracking system is combined with a back-end database and archiving capabilities so that it is possible to extract and analyse trends and statistics about individual players, games, ball-to-ball comparisons, etc.

It literally requires the ball to be visible so when the keeper wraps his arms around it entirely and then brings it back behind the post, enough of the cameras lose LOS that it doesn't work.

 

Anyone that's watched a vague amount of football over the last few years has got to accept that the technology is pretty ****ing good to be fair, I mean this is just ludicrously freak.

I imagine VAR cannot over rule goal line tech. If they were we’d be into all kinds of subjective decisions like the offside
