In today's rapidly changing world, sports like cricket, football and tennis play a very important role as they bring new energy and enthusiasm into life. To make these sports more effective and fair, many monitoring systems have been created. One of the most notable tracking technologies that has gained a lot of popularity since its inception is Hawk-Eye technology. It is used in sports broadcasts and is a development that will strengthen the presence of groups. We have reached a stage where human errors can change the fortunes of the player and the team. We therefore need a system capable of combating these problems. Hawk-Eye technology was initially used in the field of cricket to assist the umpire, but has now spread its wings into many sports as well as the military and automotive industries. In 1970, a hockey coach stated that players should start the game assuming the score was 0 – 3 down. “One goal for your weaknesses, another for your opponent's strengths and a third for refereeing errors.” This quote illustrates the importance of Hawk-Eye technology. Index Terms: Hawkeye, triangulation, tracking system, camera, cricket, trajectory, precision. Hawkeye is a complex computer system used in cricket, tennis and other games. Hawk-Eye technology was developed by Dr. Paul Hawkins. He invented ball tracking systems to improve the quality of sports decisions and thus support referees in making accurate and quick decisions on line calls in real game situations. The basic idea is to monitor the trajectory of the ball throughout the game. This data is then processed to produce... half the card... ICATION IN CRICKETFig. 9 – Hawk-Eye Predicted Trajectory [13]The key statistics that Hawk-Eye can provide are:• Cart Wheel: This wheel shows the regions of the pitch where the batsman has made all his runs. The different colors of the wagon wheel are used to represent the singles, 2s, 3s, 4s and 6s that together make up the fast 50s or centuries. • Hives: Hives are similar to pitch maps but are batsman-friendly. They show where the ball went past the batsman, which balls scored runs, and which balls were run-scoring balls.Fig. 13 – Hives• Railcam: This feature focuses on bowlers. Railcam allows us to know the difference in speed and bounce of balls bowled by the same bowler or by different bowlers. This also gives us an idea of the pitcher's line and length along with the variations in his repertoire.
