JAKARTA - FIFA will implement a new semi-automatic system capable of sending real-time off-side alerts to video match officials at the 2022 World Cup Qatar.

This system will be made possible by the use of a connected ball and a camera system that tracks all players on the field.

Quoted from Malaymail.com, Thursday, this semi-automatic off-side detection technology will be used in all upcoming football competitions.

This technology will help referees make decisions faster, which in turn helps keep the game going.

This semi-automatic offside detection technology uses no less than 12 cameras, placed under the roof of the stadium, tracking each player with up to 29 data points per player (mainly on the face and limb extremities).

It is monitored 50 times per second to accurately determine a player's exact position on the field at any given time.

A sensor in the center of the official 2022 FIFA World Cup ball will transmit data up to 500 times per second, enabling precise detection of kick points.

Then, by combining all this data and applying advanced algorithms, alerts about potential off-side incidents will be systematically sent to the video match officials.

After a quick study of the order of play, if an official confirms an offside position, they will notify the referee present on the pitch. This process only takes a few seconds to complete, to avoid major time-outs during the game.

Each decision will spawn a 3D animation detailing the exact position of each player involved in the incident. It can, if necessary, be broadcast on television and in stadiums.

The new technology complements video-assisted refereeing (VAR), which was introduced at the last World Cup, which France won in 2018.

The 2022 World Cup is scheduled to kick off on Monday, November 21, while the final will be held on Sunday, December 18, on Qatar National Day.
