NFL set to look at chip-in-ball technology

THE NFL are in discussions about employing chip-in-ball technology to help rule on contentious touchdown and first down calls, according to German manufacturer Cairos Technologies.

“Yes, we are talking. There is a demand in American Football,” Cairos sales director Mario Hanus told Reuters.

The NFL would not deny or confirm the talks. However, a spokesman for the league said on Tuesday that they are looking at expanding their use of technology.
