Instead of fancy-schmancy
transponders, you could just have
a simple overhead view of the
playing field in the window. |
|
| |
Ideally, of course, the viewer
would be able to choose their own
view configuration. |

In an overhead view, each player would be less than 1/50 the width of the field; if you compress the field into the top-right 1/3x1/4 of the screen, the players would be too small to identify, especially if their uniforms were similarly-colored. An electronically-generated "scanner" image (like the scanner in such games as "Defender" and "Wizard of Wor") could render the players and the ball as colored dots large enough to be readily seen. Additionally, the scanner background could have a highlighted area showing what part of the field was visible in the main camera view. |

Aren't they using something like this in the Premiership now, I'm sure I've seen it on TV but can't remember its name. |
