Our First Down Laser Line is to replace the cumbersome implements of the chain gang as well as the computer generated "yellow line" seen during the broadcast of a football game. Unlike the imaginary yellow line, our "Green Line" can be seen from anywhere in the stadium. It is to be controlled by the officials as the official guideline on which all line calls are based. Our line can be filmed, providing both the officials and the home viewer with an accurate instant replay.
Our "Green Line" provides the players with a visible goal, preventing the fumbles and injuries that often occur when a player's attention is turned toward the sidelined first down markers. When presented with a real goal, players are driven to play harder, giving their fans a more exciting performance.
"The First Down Green Laser Line system includes first down and goal line indicators that are triggered by the ball crossing the plane of the visible first down line or the goal line."

Three (3) safe, simple and efficient ways to use our new First Down Laser Chain set system in a game:
"Don't eliminate the use of the sideline chains sets and markers, just save valuable presently lost TV commercial revenue making time on all measurements for first downs, with our new patented First Down Laser Flags system chains set."
1- With a button on his wristband, the referee can turn off or on the first down laser line for everyone on the field, in the stadium and on television to see projected across the field rather than the imaginary first down line only visible on television. With our line, the ball carrier, receivers and defenders will know EXACTLY where the first down line is.
2- Offensive team has a third & 3 on their own 25 yard line. They complete a 17 yard pass for a 1st down to their own 42. AS HE DOES NOW, the sideline judge stands on the sideline at the 42 waiting for the back stick (flag) to be placed at the 42. The front stick (with the laser on it) is then stretched 10 yards to the opponent's 48 yard line. The next play can begin.
3- When a referee calls for a measurement of a "too close to call first down", rather than the time consuming bringing out of the chains to see if the ball is over the first down line, the referee simply holds the ball on the spot it was downed and can instantly see whether or not the ball has broken the first down laser beam.
