Football Match Ruined When AI-Controlled Camera Mistakes Ref’s Bald Head for Ball

[Icon]

The camera was programmed to automatically follow the ball, removing the need for a human camera person. Outside of taking a person’s job, it seems kind of neat in theory. The issue was that the camera couldn’t tell the difference between the ball and the bald head, continually focusing on a man standing around not doing much, rather than actually let fans see the action.

To make matters worse Scotland is under strict social distancing measures. With no fans in attendance this was the only ways for fans of Iverness and Ayr United to watch the match, and instead they were treated to 90 minutes of head watching.

Hivi tuseme hiyo game ilikuwa covered na camera moja?
Below is an example of cricket coverage and I guess futa is close.

32-35 cameras

But cameras have been a constant in these matches right from the first day till now.” In the current World Cup, 32-35 cameras have been used in almost every match. The final at the Lord's will have 36. There are five technical crews and four production crews working simultaneously across different venues.Jul 20, 2019

How the broadcast of ICC Cricket World Cup has changed over the past four decades

In the 1980s, you just saw one side of the field per over. Today, World Cup cricket broadcasting means 360-degree coverage. We zoom into the details .

Well, obviously saying 90 minutes of head watching is an exaggeration but it seems the A.I. did make the mistake many times enough to become a problem.
