Provide VARs with the best tools, highest quality images in the lowest possible time, allowing them to make the correct decisions.
Video Assistant Referee (VAR)
The vieww VAR system uses all the experience gained from goal line technology (GLT) and combines powerful GPU calculations with the most efficient programming. SDI signals are converted into high-quality JPEG images. Each individual image is captured separately, like a photograph, to avoid loss of detail. At the same time, the system offers a very fast response time. Due to our extensive knowledge of image processing, vieww was able to create an intelligent server/client concept that does not require large data transfer rates.
Through our experience in over 2000 VAR matches, we have identified core underlying principles that we have based our solution on:
No Tolerance
for technical failure
The system needs to contain the necessary backups in order to maintain the level of service at all times. The focus will lie on a safe and timely delivery of the project.
Audio Reliability and Quality
Without a clear and reliable audio communication between the VAR and the Referee, the video assistance cannot help. We have partnered with the best to offer the ultimate solution which our clients can rely on.
Premium ‘look & feel’ in the VOR
VARs need to make decisions in high pressure situations, and we allow them to do so by providing a high quality, professional environment where they can focus on their crucial role in the game.
System Architecture
- Flexible Server-Client modular architecture, scalable for the biggest camera plans
- Live backup server for additional reliability
- Intelligent data flow, minimising bandwidth requirements
- Central positions able to access all camera feeds and interact with multiple workstations
- Simulate complete games or single situations in a training environment for the VAR team without any changes in the hardware configuration from the live system
- Fully integrated with vieww GLT
- Smart RRA requiring only a simple internet connection

Server / Client
Using many years of experience in video workflows for Goal Line Technology, the vieww VAR system combines powerfulGraphic processing with most efficient programming.
SDI signals in each server are converted to high quality JPEG images. Each single frame is captured individually like a photo in order to guarantee the best possible quality. These images are then available on high speed storage for client systems to access on request. This means we maintain the highest quality and responsiveness for the end user, without needing a large, expensive network connection between the server and the client.

User Interface
Every single feature of the Vieww VAR System is built to provide the VARs with the highest quality images in the lowest possible time in order to make the correct decision. With an intuitive and easy interface, operators are immediately in the position to support the VARs in the process.
Features
- 10 point touch control with zoom and drag & drop functionality
- Customisable layouts, presets & camera names
- Easy Camera synchronization tool
- Customisable playback speeds & loops with jog shuttle
- Tag buttons with event classifications
- On-field Review graphic
- Video clip playlists & exports
- Intercom system
- Virtual Offside Line
RRA Monitor
The weatherproof structure with integrated high quality outdoor monitor can be placed in any location pitch side. The blending screen which ensures privacy of the VAR can be de-activated by the operator at any time to show the exact VAR monitor. The referee can then direct the operator and VAR to see alternative video angles and speeds.

Full experience with a small budget
VAR Light
Allow all competitions, to benefit from video technology by leveraging the light and modular infrastructure of the vieww GLT and VAR systems.
Single Station
We have deployed a VAR Light prototype during a test in Portugal. The lightweight single box allows VAR Operations at any stadium with no infrastructure necessary.
With a 5 to 10 minutes setup, the system is very easy to install, deploys two touch monitor and ingests up to 8 SDI feeds or 4 IP feeds.
Double Station
- VAR and AVAR setup
- Built in RRA monitor for the referee
- Up to 8 SDI and 8 IP Cameras
- Easily setup, transported and stored
