1. Introduction
All manuscripts must be in English. These guidelines include
complete descriptions of the fonts, spacing, and related

6. information for producing your proceedings manuscripts.
This report should include the following:
· Need
· Objective
· Background/Literature Survey
· Marketing (or User) Requirement
· Description of the Proposed Approach
· Functional Decomposition
· Project Management (WBS and Gantt chart)
Your WBS would be completed within this MS Word (or first in
Excel file and then copied into this Word document) and Gantt
chart in an MS Project file (and copied into the main body or
Appendix of this Word Document). A couple of comments to
avoid common mistakes in completing the Gantt chart are:
· Each task in your Gantt chart shall contain a brief note that
would be equivalent to “Description” in your WBS table. Such a
note for a task can be inserted by double clicking the cell
containing the Task Name in your Project file for a Gantt chart.
Note when your Gantt chart is printed, these notes should
appear after the list of tasks.
· All tasks in your Gantt chart shall have appropriate
predecessors such that all changes in time duration for tasks can
result in proper adjustment in the overall schedule of the project
completion.
2. Formatting Your Report
All printed material, including text, illustrations, and charts,
must be kept within a print area of 6-1/2 inches (16.51 cm) wide
by 8-7/8 inches (22.51 cm) high. Do not write or print anything
outside the print area. Text must be fully justified.
3. Main Title
The main title (on the first page) should begin 1-3/8 inches
(3.49 cm) from the top edge of the page, centered, and in Times
14-point, boldface type. Capitalize the first letter of nouns,
pronouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs; do not capitalize
articles, coordinate conjunctions, or prepositions (unless the

7. title begins with such a word). Leave two 12-point blank lines
after the title.
4. Author Name(s) and Affiliation(s)
Author names and affiliations are to be centered beneath the
title and printed in Times 12-point, non-boldface type. Multiple
authors may be shown in a two- or three-column format, with
their affiliations italicized and centered below their respective
names. Include e-mail addresses if possible. Author information
should be followed by two 12-point blank lines.
5. Second and Following Pages
The second and following pages should begin 1.0 inch (2.54 cm)
from the top edge. On all pages, the bottom margin should be 1-
1/8 inches (2.86 cm) from the bottom edge of the page for 8.5 x
11-inch paper.
6. Type-style and Fonts
Wherever Times is specified, Times Roman or Times New
Roman may be used. If neither is available on your word
processor, please use the font closest in appearance to Times.
Avoid using bit-mapped fonts if possible. True-Type 1 fonts are
preferred.
7. Main Text
Type your main text in 10-point Times, double-spacing. All
paragraphs should be indented 1/4 inch (approximately 0.5 cm).
Be sure your text is fully justified—that is, flush left and flush
right. Please do not place any additional blank lines between
paragraphs.
Do not use PERSONAL PRONOUNS.
Figure and table captions should be 10-point boldface Helvetica
(or a similar sans-serif font). Callouts should be 9-point non-
boldface Helvetica. Initially capitalize only the first word of
each figure caption and table title. Figures and tables must be
numbered separately. For example: “Figure 1. Database
contexts”, “Table 1. Input data”. Figure captions are to be
centered below the figures. Table titles are to be centered above
the tables. Figures and tables must be referenced and explained
clearly in the text. You must convey the information that you

8. plan to communicate clearly in all figures and tables.
The following are inserted here to generate a list of figures and
a list of tables:
Figure is placed here
Figure 1. Database contexts
Figure 2 graphics here
Figure 2. testing again
Table 1. Input data
Table is place here
8. First-order Headings
For example, “1. Introduction”, should be Times 12-point
boldface, initially capitalized, flush left, with one blank line
before, and one blank line after. Use a period (“.”) after the
heading number, not a colon.
8.1. Second-order Headings
As in this heading, they should be Times 11-point boldface,
initially capitalized, flush left, with one blank line before, and
one after.
8.1.1. Third-order Headings.
Third-order headings, as in this paragraph use 10-point Times,
boldface, initially capitalized, flush left, preceded by one blank
line, followed by a period and your text on the same line.
9. Footnotes
Use footnotes sparingly (or not at all) and place them at the
bottom of the column on the page on which they are referenced.
Use Times 8-point type, single-spaced. To help your readers,
avoid using footnotes altogether and include necessary
peripheral observations in the text (within parentheses, if you
prefer, as in this sentence).
10. References

9. List and number all bibliographical references in 10-point
Times, double-spaced, at the end of your report. When
referenced in the text, enclose the citation number in square
brackets, for example [1]. Where appropriate, include the
name(s) of editors of referenced books.

Abstract
In sports, nobody enjoys a missed call or lengthy review.

15. Critics will always doubt the ability of
human referees and officials to make an objective unbiased
judgement. Advances in technology have
finally provided a solution to a problem that has baffled fans,
officials and participants since sports were
invented: how to tell if a ball or player crossed a line with
complete objectivity.
Motion sensors are the solution. They are already used to
detect break-ins, determine where
things lie on the ocean floor, and manage air traffic. FIFA
(Fédération Internationale de Football
Association) has been using a sensor system to alert officials of
goals for more than a year.1 The objective
of this project is to devise a similar system for American
Football. Like the FIFA system, it would replace
camera systems that ultimately lead to video replay and the
subjugation of human error with an unbiased
system that would determine if a player achieved a first down or
a touchdown. One critical component
will be to timestamp the crossing of the ball to aid further
review of a player’s knee or elbow touching the
ground, which also affects the ruling on the field. Although
future projects may be able to create a method
to determine when a player’s knee touches the ground, this is
beyond the scope of this project. However,
because the crossing of the plane or first down line will be
accurately timestamped, the camera system
review process for this can be aided.
Background and Significance
As mentioned, FIFA employs a sensor based system to
determine goals. The main system used is
known as GoalRef. The GoalRef system has two key elements:
an “iBall” and an electromagnetic field
around the goal posts. The “iBall” is embedded with passive

16. circuits that will respond to the application
of an electromagnetic field. An electromagnetic is generated
within the goal posts and the complete
passing of the “iBall” will cause a change in the field that is
picked up via sensors.2 This indicates a goal.
The system will then notify the officiating crew by sending
signals to their watches.
The GoalRef system is very cost effective when compared to
high tech camera systems such as
Hawkeye that can be used for video replay and goal
determination2; however, there are some difficulties
in the system when applied to American football. The first is
that only part of the one foot long ball has to
cross the line, while in soccer, the entire ball must cross the
line. The second is that the line to cross is
always changing in American football, unlike the fixed goal
lines in soccer. The third is that in American
football, the crossing of the line is not the only factor; the
player’s body with relation to the ground must
also be considered. To overcome these difficulties, the designed
system needs to be easily mobile, and it
needs to timestamp and record multiple crossings.
To make it mobile, the sensors that were mounted to the goal
posts will be mounted to the pylons
and the first down stick. The system, rather than create an
electromagnetic field, will send out pulses
within milliseconds of each other in a straight line across the
field and detect if the ball, which will be
filled with a reflector, that will bounce back the signals. To
ensure that the field is covering the proper
path, the field emitter will be able to tell if it is parallel with
the plane of the ground and with the side
lines, and the field will cover just over the width of the football
field in both directions. As an extra pre-
caution, a receiver will be held exactly parallel to the emitter to
collect the signals and prevent false

17. reflections and interference.
The proposed research will determine the precision and
effectiveness of such a system for
American football. It will discover if the additional challenges
presented by American football can be
overcome in a practical system. It will build upon researchers’
knowledge of electromagnetic fields,
circuits, and communication technology. If the goals of this
project are successfully achieved, the path to

may also one day decrease negative tension
surrounding sporting events and ease the minds of referees
everywhere about whether or not they made
the correct call.
