each time the ball hits the clay or the grass, an imprint is left on the ground from the ink inside the ball.
players and linesmen will know immediately if a ball is in or out.
well done, Rafa btw.

Maybe meat flavored and non-toxic ink? [blissmiss, Jul 04 2010]

Of course, advertisers will sponsor balls... |

"It's obvious to me, Frank, that the FedEx/Nike/IBM ball hit just outside the line..." |
|

and ...? Rafa has the muscles :) |
|
| |
I suppose rackets, pockets, and the hands of players and
ballboys will gun up with ink as well. |
|
| |
But what about the ball dogs? Would the dye be
toxic? |
|
| |
How will they be cleaned off for the next match? |
|
| |
non toxic, water soluble ink. |
|
| |
ball dogs? you mean dogs that like to chase tennis balls - they can have the traditional ones. |
|
| |
After a spirited set won't the ink from the balls leave the players' racquets a drippy ink mess? |
|
| |
Erm, if this could be modified so it would only leave a mark on the area outside the court you might have something (starch and phenolphthalein maybe?). |
|
| |
As for the ball dogs, I really want to see that implemented. I am sure that a big match could afford to just let the dogs keep the slobbery balls, or even auction them off for charity. |
