English Premier League: Referee To Wear Camera During Crystal Palace Vs Manchester United PL Match
The video from CRY vs MUN match will be used in a one-off programme providing insight into officiating in the Premier League
The league said the head-mounted device — or “RefCam” as it is being called — worn by Jarred Gillett at Selhurst Park will be integrated into the referee's usual communications system.
The technology is being used on a one-off basis, the league said, as part of filming for a short program promoting match officials. The footage will not be broadcast live.
“Fans will be able to view it later in the year as part of a program ... aimed at offering further insight and education into the demands of officiating in the Premier League,” the competition said.
