Here is a video showcasing the newest technology on the scene in the sport of cricket:
This technology was introduced at Australia’s Big Bash season 2 in Melbourne. The goal is to enhance the spectators’ experience by giving fans an instant, clear sign when the wicket is broken.
According to The News Tribe, “the new technological innovation in cricket was Australian-designed Zing Wicket System which has a sensor in the bails that can determine within one-thousandth of a second when the wicket is broken.
Once the wicket is broken or even touched, the bails instantly lighten up with red LED lights through a radio signal. They are powered by low voltage batteries in each of the bails and also in the stumps.”
Enhancing the fan experience is not only driving this new technology. This season will also see the introduction of helmets with cameras, so fans can see what it is like to be a batsmen and wicket-keeper. Ref. thenewstribe.com
