The system that is set to be implemented at Wimbledon for the 2025 tournament works by tracking the ball’s movement through 12 cameras strategically placed on every court. There are also microphones on the court to listen for the sound of the ball as well as a computer to interpret the ball’s location in real time.
THIS IS NOT AI YOU FUCKING IDIOTS. ITS MATH.
This kind of tech has existed for a decade or more.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawk-Eye
The system was originally implemented in 2000 for television purposes in cricket.
Hawk-Eye has been used for the Challenge System since 2006 in tennis and Decision Review System in cricket since 2009. The system is also used to determine whether the ball has crossed the goal line in football as a means of goal-line technology, implemented in the 2013–14 Premier League season and now present at many domestic leagues and international competitions.

Line judges?
oh, yeah. Go ahead
What does the AI do?
Sounds like the big change is that they’re expanding the use of hawkeye and having it replace line judges, but that’s existed for ages.
Article doesn’t really say where AI comes into the mix and what it does, other than that it’s part of the new tech…
I’m sure they will also be running it on blockchain technology and creating NFTs that you can only buy with Wimblecoin.
