Abstract

Over the years interest in sports science has boomed with current research in using technology to monitor athlete performance and the motion of balls or other equipment during a game. The contributions of Geophysics to sport are, as far as we have found, only indirect until now. We used the seismic method, specifically a 48-channel seismic acquisition system, coupled with basic processing, to locate the position at which a cricket ball impacted the pitch with an accuracy of ±10 cm. Previously this could only be done using expensive television-based systems.
