NFL Implementation of the Hawk-Eye system to measure the first stockings

The method of measuring the first stockings in the NFL will pass chain gangs to camera -based technology in 2025, the League announced on Tuesday.

The official use of the Hawk-Eye virtual measurement system of Sony, made up of six 8K cameras for optical monitoring of the position of the ball, was announced during the annual League meeting in Palm Beach, Florida.

Technology is “an effective alternative to the field walking process and to measure manually if 10 yards were encountered after the official spotted the ball,” the league said in a press release.

The traditional chain crew will remain on the secondary key.

“The NFL and the Sony integrate world class terms with advanced technology to advance football excellence,” said Troy Vincent, executive vice-president of NFL football operations. “The combination of officer’s art with the Hawk-Eye confidence system of Sony is a healthy recipe to succeed in our commitment to increase the standards of precision, consistency and efficiency. Replay Technology and Data Insights of Sony’s Hawk-Eye innovations help us to advance our efforts to the future of football.”

The system informs managers in the field of the measurement of the measure, with virtual recreation of the measures produced in real time for crowds and the public of diffusion in the stadium. The total process lasts approximately 30 seconds, which hatches up to 40 seconds of measurement via chains.

The HAWK-EYE system will be used from the central central officers center of NFL McNally Gameday in New York and integrated into the existing rereading system of the League.

“Sony’s long-standing relationship with the NFL is based on our joint desire to innovate and bring the public closer to action, and the Hawk-Eye virtual measurement system is acting more on these commitments,” said Neal Manowitz, president and COO of Sony Electronics, North America. “We are impatient to provide more excitement to passionate fans, because we help transform the game in a way that is only possible by the power of creativity and technology.”
