Magnetic Field Football

Check out this football which has a magnetic field inside to track the exact location during matches. No more guesses by the referee and linesmen.

“The purpose of the adidas intelligent ball and Goal Line Technology is to provide greater transparency during a match and to assist the referee in making quick decisions that can impact the outcome and quality of the game” said Hans-Peter Nuernberg, Senior Development Engineer, adidas Innovation Team. “We expect the system to perform very well during the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan and we will continue to refine the system so that it is 100% accurate.”

If the tests work out, this clever ball will be the ball of choice for the World Cup in 2010
