FIFA establishes standards for stadium tracking devices

The International Football Association (FIFA) has issued the official 2026 Testing Guide for Electronic Performance and Tracking Systems (EPTS), outlining the standards required for granting international certifications. The guide focuses on various tracking systems, including GPS, LIDAR technologies, and hybrid systems, with set maximum error margins. Specifically, the player positioning error should not exceed 0.4 meters, while speed measurements must be within 0.2 meters per second. Additionally, live data transmission delays must be within three seconds. The certification process involves rigorous on-field testing to ensure systems comply with regulations and data protection standards. Approved tracking devices cost between $120 and $600 per unit, while complete team systems range from $10,000 to $40,000 annually. Licensing also involves applicable administrative and technical fees for companies seeking certification.
