Cricket is Played in almost all the Countries in The World and Major Countries Contributing to this Gentleman's Games is INDIA , AUSTRALIA , SOUTH AFRICA , PAKISTAN , SRI LANKA, WEST INDIES , BANGLADESH , IRELAND , NEW ZEALAND , KENYA .
Technology has Always being ans Evolving Obsession . There Used to be Just Two Umpires Called the Decision Making Body in Cricket when it was Resulted. Now in Addition to these two On-Field Umpires there is a third umpire too who Sits in an Air Condition Room and Takes a Vigilant eye on all the 11 Players and helps in Making Fuzzy Decisions.
We Know that This Post Will Surprise you a Little as it is Quite Distinguishable from our Usual Posts on APPLE , WINDOWS , NOKIA , ANDROID etc.. But we felt Like Sharing This For You .
Anyways Lets have a look Some of the Latest Technologies used in This auspicious Game of Cricket !!
Rail cam:-
The ‘RailCam’ (side view) shot of the VR World can be used to represent differences in speed, bounce and delivery. The trajectories are animated, whilst the speeds provide further evidence of a bowler’s variation or a telling comparison between athletes.
Stump-Vision:
This was one of the first changes that the cricket world had come to see in the 90’s where a camera was attached in a stump and wires were set-up underground connecting them to tv components or even the computers.
Snicko-Meter:
The crowds became so large that the umpires on field could not hear the faintest of nicks that took place in the play and in came the snickometer which helps to judge whether the ball had hit the bat or not . This technology was given a great response by the cricketing field.
Hawk-Eye:
This one of the latest inventions in the cricket technology where around 5-6 cameras are used to create 3D path of the ball . This technology helps in LBW decisions by creating a imaginary path of the ball after it had hit the pad of the batsmen .
Hot-Spot:
Hotspot can be the video part of the snicko meter . Hotspot technology uses infra-red imaging system to determine wether the ball had stuck the batsmen’s pad or some other part . On any snick or bat involvement it sends the image to the computer which turns negative giving 100% accurate decision on wether ball had hit the bat or not .
Zoomer:
The Zoomer is another natural propagation of the camera replays and the super slow motion cameras just to display the accurate position of the ball of whether the ball touched the ground before being caught or the ball hit the bat before hitting the pad and take a catch. There is definitely an inquisitiveness that involves in finding out what actually happened especially if it was a crucial wicket etc.
Reaction time:
Reaction timers are something that show the skill of fielders and bowlers with unbelievable proof. I have been awestruck at the fielding of Johnty Rhodes, Herschelle Gibbs and even India’s Yuvraj Singh on how they are able to pick the ball out of seemingly thin air. And the fact that the fielders did it in less than half a second was even as astounding as the catch itself. I think that along with the batting and bowling averages, the fielders need to have statistics as well, with their fastest reaction times shown.
Beehive:Beehives show where the ball has passed the batsman. As with the Pitch Map, the colored balls correspond to the number of runs that the batsman has achieved from that delivery. Hawk-Eye Beehives can now be shown against a photo realistic or virtual realistic world, as with the Wagon Wheel feature.
