GoalControl is a German company[1] based in Würselen, district of Aachen which has developed a goal-line technology for Association football.
14 high speed cameras are mounted in the stadium, 7 directed to each of the goals. These cameras are used to detect if the ball has crossed the goal line or not. No special goals, nets, or balls need to be used.
The technology was licensed by FIFA in early 2013 alongside competing systems GoalRef, Hawk-Eye, and Cairos. The GoalControl system was used at the 2013 Confederations Cup to track the ball, while GoalRef was used for display. The system will be in use at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.[2][3]
A vote cast in early 2014 by the 36 German clubs of the first and second division decided with 12 out of 36 votes against using the system due to the "exorbitant cost" of €250,000 (chip in the ball) to €500,000 (Hawk-Eye, GoalControl) per club. The support of 24 clubs would have been required to carry the motion.[4]
