FIFA will introduce a semi-automatic offside system at the World Cup in Qatar.
Another computer aid in refereeing football matches. FIFA will implement a semi-automatic offside detection system at the World Cup in Qatar. According to The Guardian, the new technology should reduce the time to determine the position of the game by up to four seconds.
The decision to introduce artificial intelligence was made by the Council of the International Football Association. The organization disputes its position by the fact that the time required to make an offside decision, in some cases, takes up to four minutes. The new technology will give VAR faster and more accurate information and reduce this time by 60 times.
The new system uses the same process as the goal line crossing technology.
The principle of operation of the system is that it sends a very fast notification to the assistant video arbitrator. After that, he decides on the level of influence in the offside player episode.
Cameras and computers monitor the players and the ball, and artificial intelligence can determine if a player is offside any time the ball is kicked.
