Abstract

In this paper, a real case study on a Goal Line Monitoringsystem is presented. The core of the paper is a re-fined ball detection algorithm that analyzes candidate ballregions to detect the ball. A decision making approach, bymeans of camera calibration, decides about the goal eventoccurrence. Differently from other similar approaches, theproposed one provides, as unquestionable proof, the imagesequence that records the goal event under consideration.Moreover, it is non-invasive: it does not require any changein the typical football devices (ball, goal posts, and so on).Extensive experiments were performed on both real matchesacquired during the Italian Serie A championship, and specificevaluation tests by means of an artificial impact walland a shooting machine for shot simulation. The encouragingexperimental results confirmed that the system couldhelp humans in ambiguous goal line event detection.
