24ABSTRACT

In the past few decades, skepticism about umpiring follies hasnt abated. In the world of sports, where stakes are increasing by every passing minute and an erroneous line-call can mean change of fortunes, there is an increasing reliance on technology to ensure that all arbitrations are unbiased. The HAWKEYE is one of the most commonly used technologies in the game of cricket today. It has been put to a variety of uses, such as providing a way to collect interesting statistics, generate very suggestive visual representations of the game play and even helping viewers to better understand the umpiring decisions, especially in the case of LBWs. While the system provides for things which we see every day on television, there is very impressive technology going into it, which many of us are oblivious to. In this paper, we attempt to explain how the technology works, in detail.
