VOGO: Audio and Video Officiating at the Service of All Sports

Modern officiating is no longer limited to the referee’s whistle and watchful eye. On the fields, in the stadiums, or along the tracks, officials now have access to cutting-edge technologies to make decisions that are fast, fair, and transparent.
VOGO has established itself as a key player, offering solutions that combine video and audio officiating, tailored to both team sports and individual disciplines.

High-Performance Audio Solutions for Seamless Communication

At the heart of matches and competitions, communication between referees is essential. VOGO’s audio systems, such as VOKKERO ELITE PLUS or VOKKERO UNITY, replace simple walkie-talkies with true professional intercoms.
These full-duplex audio systems offer:

  • Clear voice transmission, even in the noise of a packed stadium.
  • Optimized range for large playing fields.
  • Hands-free operation to stay fully focused on the game.

Whether on a football pitch, in an ice rink, or during a rally, these audio systems ensure smooth coordination between referees, video assistants, and officials.

Video Technology for Accurate Decision-Making

VOGO offers several VAR solutions tailored to all levels of sport:

  • VAR Light: lightweight and quick to set up, ideal for local or semi-professional competitions.
  • VAR Standard: robust and certified for top-level competitions.
  • FVS: a flexible system designed for sports where mobility is essential.

Thanks to video replay, referees can instantly review an action from multiple angles and make decisions without interrupting the flow of the game. Specific protocols, such as TMO/HIA in rugby, are also integrated to ensure decisions comply with the rules.

Team and Individual Sports: Complete Adaptability

Football, rugby, basketball, handball, ice hockey, as well as motorsports, equestrian, and water sports
VOGO solutions are designed to adapt to every setup:

  • Indoors: high-clarity intercom and compact VAR system.
  • Outdoors: weather-resistant audio system and mobile video setup.
  • In extreme environments: noise cancellation and maximum reliability.

VOGO’s key strength lies in the perfect combination of audio and video:

  • Robust and intuitive audio system.
  • High-performance VAR system, certified, and easy to deploy.
  • Technical support to support referees and federations.

Whether it’s an international championship or an amateur tournament, VOGO ensures fair, smooth, and rules-compliant officiating.
