Lbw

Hawk's eye is generally used in taking the LBW decision. 
To know the direction of the ball that ball goes in which direction and how.
So, without wasting time we directly know.

What is Hawk's eye?


Hawk-Eye is a technology used in cricket that gives you a virtual understanding of the angle and distance of where a ball travels once it pitches by the bowler.
One very common use of Hawk-Eye is the LBW decisions,  where the viewers can see the virtual path of the ball after it’s being pitched and in conclusion get an idea of whether the batsman should actually have been adjudged LBW or not.

The Hawk Eye technology is used in numerous sports such as.
  • Cricket
  • Tennis
  • Football
  • Badminton
  • Rugby
  • Volleyball
In tennis

Now I hope you are excited to know the working of Hawk eye technology so let's quickly know the working.

Working on Hawk eye technology?


The whole setup involves six high-speed vision processing cameras along with two broadcast cameras.
When a ball is pitched, the position of the ball is recorded in each camera and is combined to form a virtual 3D positioning of the ball after its being pitched. The whole process of the delivery is broken into two parts, delivery to bounce and bounce to impact. 
Multiple frames of the ball position are measured and through this, you can calculate the direction, speed, and swing of that specific delivery.

That was all about the Hawk eye technology.
