The Importance Of Using Real Goal Tech

By Tammie Caldwell


In the past years, there were many decisions that were made in the field that were absolutely wrong. This was brought about by the difference in position of viewing the goalposts. This would make the referee to rule that a score had been made while it did not cross the line in reality. In other cases, the score could be denied from the team that had scored. This has brought about the need to use the available technology to reduce these errors by installation of real goal tech.

This has been enabled by purchasing specific cameras that have the capacity to capture high quality images. These video recorders should also have the ability to capture high quality images and send them to the control centers where all activities that are happening are analyzed by a panel of judges.

The installation should be done by highly trained experts. This will enable the location of devices on points where they will have a very wider view. The angles at which the cameras are to be installed at are calculated to determine how well they will capture the images of a moving ball. This makes it possible to have all the highlights of activities taking place in the field.

The video recorders are installed in large numbers around the post lines. They are placed in all possible angles such that they are able to capture the slightest action of the ball near the marked line. In an event that the ball passes this line, the cameras are able to send this information to the referee of the match even if referee had not seen it. This has made is possible to make decisions on the goals that would have been rejected. In an event where the referee had ruled that a score was made and it was not, the decision is overruled.

The technology is quite expensive to install and ensure that it is working accordingly. There are many cameras that need to be put across one post and they are of very high quality. This makes them very expensive to buy and install them appropriately. In some cases they may fail to work thus requiring more time to test and re-install them. This is thus a very expensive procedure.

Most modern stadiums have this technology incorporated in them. This has been very important in making them the host of major games where a lot of accuracy is needed. Tests are done before any match to ascertain if all the gadgets are working as expected. This has brought about fair refereeing especially on issues related to scores.

The technology has been approved to be used in nearly all competitions by FIFA which is the governing body for football. The systems have been put to test in international tournaments such as the word cup where it worked efficiently. More stadiums are being upgraded to this standard.

With installation of this technology, the quality of game will improve. This will help more talents to be realized by young players. The decision of scores will be made clear and certain thus reducing any controversies in this sport.
