Why not rig the system so that it informs the home plate umpire (via earphone) what the pitch is.

Better still, why not leave the home plate ump behind the plate for everything but strikes and balls, and have the system connected to the scoreboard so that if the pitch is a strike, a red light flashes, ball, a green light. Then a rectangle could appear with a ball superimposed over it to show exactly where the pitch was.

My guess is that 3D would be no problem, either. We could see exactly how and where the ball passed through the zone.
