Manual Field Tracking

Overview

Manual Field Tracking allows you to define the pitch by selecting reference points yourself. This method is ideal when automatic detection fails or when working with custom field layouts.

How to do it

Choose at least 4 reference points on the field—typically corners, penalty spots, or center points. Then press Process to calibrate the pitch.

When to use manual

• The pitch lines are faint or partially obstructed.

• You’re working with unusual camera angles.

• You’re calibrating for non-football sports with different field layouts.

Tip

Once tracking is processed, always review a few key frames to ensure the visuals sit correctly on the pitch.
