In Qatar 2022 World Cup, a modern tracking technology will be used for the first time to determine the offside errors with extreme accuracy.

The technology depends on the presence of a sensor inside the ball that sends data about the ball’s location 500 times per second.

And there are 12 cameras installed under the stadium roof dedicated solely to tracking the ball and players. Each player's cameras see him as 29 points that move and the cameras scan each player and locate them exactly 50 times every second. And thus determine the location of his hand or leg accurately.

The AI ​​will review all suspected offside parts and draw the offside line and the exact location of the players. And in the control room, they review and decide and report the ruling on the ground.

For fans in the stadium, spectators at home, they will watch a 3D display showing offside decisions based on how they were made.

The technology represents a revolution in the field of VAR and was successfully tested in the 2021 Arab Cup and in the FIFA Club World Cup.
