The anti-Dharmaseena?Imagine doing all aspects of your job competently for just one day out of the many days you do it.
Nah. Next thing you know the Vic or Qld governments have imposed a 60 km/h bowling speed limit because someone who's never played cricket and knows nothing about it has produced 'research' and a model from Swedish theories claiming that any faster is unsafe, backed by the complaints of the guy living above the 7-11 on the corner of Wellington and Powlett.Just set up a red light camera on the crease line. Problem solved
Honestly can't tell if you're being serious ITT. You're still just saying "If you can't tell me exactly how the technology works then it must be impossible". If you really think a beeping no-balls sensor is beyond human technology to create then I honestly don't know what to say to you.There isn't actually any technology available that can be effectively put towards solving this issue.
Just stop to think about what it is this technology would entail before you keep posting. You need a system that:
A) Works regardless if a bowler is bowling over or around the wicket, and regardless of where the batsman stands and how he moves
B) Can identify the moment a front foot lands, and doesn't confuse that with the bowler's backfoot or follow through.
C) Isn't a permanent fixture in the ground (because not all grounds would pay to install/maintain it, and if it cannot be used in every single game of a series/tournament, it's unlikely to be used at all)
D) Doesn't interrupt the game (get in the way of bowlers, batsmen, fielders)
E) Will not break or get damaged over the process of a game, or during bad weather
F) Is accurate and affordable
G) Doesn't require an additional human being present at the ground to operate (you may as well just have a guy staring at the crease whole game via a pair of binoculars calling no-balls instead)
Now, go and actually have a think about what human technology is currently capable of. Look at how other sports tackle similar issues, and see if they are adaptable to cricket. Take the time to actually think this through instead of repeatedly insisting that the technology exists and just no one cbf to do anything, and then then let me know if you think current technology actually allows for a solution to this issue.
Or, y'know, just continue to hold up a protractor to your TV and question why we can land a man on the moon but can't figure out such simple problems.
I don't get why you keep insisting that it's impossible, when you have absolutely no knowledge of whether or not it would be, yet then deride someone else for insisting that it is possible because they have no absolute knowledge of how exactly it would work. I don't even know what your argument is anymore, just seems like you're trying to be a dickBreaking news: man who doesn't understand tech wonders how it's possible for us to land on the moon but yet we can't automate front foot no balls.
Ding!I don't get why you keep insisting that it's impossible, when you have absolutely no knowledge of whether or not it would be, yet then deride someone else for insisting that it is possible because they have no absolute knowledge of how exactly it would work.

wow "no one of these random dudes on a cricket forum can tell me exactly how the technology would work, therefore I'll keep insisting that it must be impossible to develop the technology"I wonder why TJB assumes I don't have an engineering background and haven't spent hours of thought and research into this concept. He thinks I know absolutely nothing. Maybe it's because he knows absolutely nothing himself, and is simply projecting his lack of knowledge onto other posters? 'Hey, I've never actually worked with sensors and wiring and cameras and software before, therefore there is no way that you have!'
Maybe he thinks no one knows for sure if Bigfoot is real or not too?
Like I said, if someone can actually find or put together a feasible system that actually works, I'm all ears. So far I've come across nothing except for ****posters insisting it must be possible and then admitting they have no knowledge on how it actually is.
Apparently not. Talk about ****posting.do you even hear yourself?
Why would he assume otherwise? Have you provided your CV to CW for all to see?I wonder why TJB assumes I don't have an engineering background and haven't spent hours of thought and research into this concept.

That's not what I'm sayingwow "no one of these random dudes on a cricket forum can tell me exactly how the technology would work, therefore I'll keep insisting that it must be impossible to develop the technology"

Why assume anything at all? Why assume that everyone he speaks to is as dumb lazy and ignorant as himself? Why not just openly say he has no ****ing idea what he's talking about that that maybe this tech actually isn't out there, instead of digging his heels in and insisting it exists and providing no evidence of it?Why would he assume otherwise? Have you provided your CV to CW for all to see?
Putting together PowerPoint presentations for the grown ups to present isn't an "engineering background" mate.I wonder why TJB assumes I don't have an engineering background and haven't spent hours of thought and research into this concept.

M8 I never assumed anything. You forced that upon me as you have this whole debate. Honestly ***** you are going full r****d this thread and before calling me "dumb lazy and ignorant" maybe take a look at yourself.Why assume anything at all? Why assume that everyone he speaks to is as dumb lazy and ignorant as himself? Why not just openly say he has no ****ing idea what he's talking about that that maybe this tech actually isn't out there, instead of digging his heels in and insisting it exists and providing no evidence of it?
I'm getting way more annoyed by this than I should. This is equivalent to someone on FB saying 'that batsman could have hit that ball for six, he just chose not to, this whole match is fixed'. It's that level of ignorance and arrogance and it's just really annoys me.
"nope technology doesn't exist and you're dumb stupid and lazy for assuming that it does I have an engineering background how dare you make assumptions about me"It feels like a cross purposes talk, the fundamental technology exists but engineering it in a practical sensible manner has not been done and is unlikely to been done any time soon. Hawkeye, snicko only got put together because of broadcasters taking the lead to create 'excitement, controversy', the broadcasters have no real need to engineer anything to show a single screen shot after the event, which has little practical use for umpiring.
Considering what people call 'engineering' nowadays it may very well be...Putting together PowerPoint presentations for the grown ups to present isn't an "engineering background" mate.
