Facts concerning BLIC

[Ste]

Yes thats what I thought. So Hawkeye is one of the innovations, what could the others be? Snikometer, the Skyline thing and Ultramotion?

 

[zimrahil]

Snickometer would be cool

 

[squiz]

Yeah, I'd like to see the snickometer

what are these though: "Skyline thing and Ultramotion"

 

[andrew_nixon]

skyline is the graphic that they put between the stumps on replays to show if the ball pitched in line.

Ultra motion is incredibly slow motion. They've been using it this year on UK cricket coverage and the footage looks amazing, almost artistic.

 

[squiz]

Is that like the super slow mo they used at the tennis? Is skyline just the strike zone?

 

[andrew_nixon]

for the slow mo probably, for the skyline, not quite.....

The skyline is on the Cricket 2004 lbw replays anyway, so it won't be new for BLC.

So it's just that orange line down the pitch?

 

[fardin]

i am also thinking if the codemaster's can add a skyline when it is not lbw' for example the player shout's for the lbw the bowler get's denied by the umpire then there should be a replay to show you if that was the right decision from the bleedy upmire or not'

 

[andrew_nixon]

yes...
