videoReferee®-FC – Video assistant referee (VAR) system

videoReferee®-FC – is a video assistant referee system (VAR) designed for football. It is configurable for any level of responsibility of the competition.

Slomo.tv’s VAR system combines compact size, ease of use and compliance with all the requirements of international football federations and competitions.

videoReferee®-FC – is the most powerful VAR system in the world. One 4U server provides simultaneous support for up to 32 3G/HD video input channels. A large number of channels allows working not only with standard cameras, but also with Super Slow Motion cameras (each requiring up to 4 input channels), and provide necessary number of VOR cameras in accordance with the requirements. 

Thanks to the option of having up to 4 independent workplaces, additional assistant VAR (AVAR) and replay operators (RO) can in the background prepare video material, which could be of potential interest for review by VAR. Should VAR require it, it can be instantly transferred to the main workplace for review.

Quad screens for each operator can be created using individual presets. For example, the left and right halves of the field. This speeds up the process of search and camera selection, which clearly shows the controversial moment.

The ability to configure the system allows you to adapt it to different conditions depending on the stadium or the requirements of a particular football competition.
