북중미월드컵 공인구 ‘트리온다’, 내장 센서로 비디오 판독 돕는다

2026 북중미월드컵 열기가 달아오르고 있다. 월드컵이 열릴 때마다 어느 나라가 우승을 차지할지, 어떤 선수가 활약할지와 함께 또 하나 주목받는 것이 바로 공이다. 이번 월드컵 공인구는 스페인어로 3개의 파도를 뜻하는 ‘트리온다(Trionda)’다. 세 개최국인 캐나다, 멕시코, 미국을 각각 상징하는 붉은색, 초록색, 푸른색의 화려한 물결무늬가 눈에 띄지만, 과학자들이 주목하는 것은 화려한 색상 이면에 숨은 표면 구조다. 역대 월드컵 중 가장 적은 4개 패널로 만든 공축구공은 둥글기만 하면 되는 물체가 아니다. 월드컵 공인구는 공중에서 얼마나 안정적으로 날아가고, 어느 정도 휘어지며, 어느 순간 속도를 잃고 떨어질지를 고려해 대회마다 새롭게 설계한다. 이에 따라 공 겉면을 구성하는 조각인 패널 수도 변한다. 자블라니(2010 남아공)는 8개 패널, 브라주카(2014 브라질)와 텔스타18(2018 러시아)은 6개 패널, 알 리흘라(2022 카타르)는 20개 패널로 만들어졌다. 이번

People Power Party faces post-election tension as pressure mounts on Jang

South Korea's main opposition People Power Party is facing mounting internal pressure for leadership change after Wednesday's local elections, as calls grow for Chair Rep.

The man of the moment: What's next for Koo Kyo-hwan?

The first half of 2026 saw Koo Kyo-hwan everywhere. Previously a fixture of South Korea's independent cinema, the actor transitioned this year into a highly bankable mainstream lead, headlining a trio of tentpole projects that showcased his chameleon-like range. The 43-year-old actor's box office momentum began in late 2025 with "Once We Were Us." It pulled off a major market upset by unseating James Cameron's sci-fi epic "Avatar: Fire and Ash" at the Korean box office, subsequently holding the
