Overview
- The league confirmed SAOT will be used in every match of the Clausura 2026 after trials during Apertura 2025.
- The system employs 28 stadium cameras to generate real-time 3D mesh data, identify the kick point, and draw virtual lines for review.
- Its function is limited to offside detection, serving as a VAR aid while leaving the final decision to match officials.
- Liga MX contracted Genius Sports, the provider used in the Premier League and other elite competitions, to install and operate the technology.
