Short Track Speed Skating Gold Solution

When you are preparing your facility to host a world class event with elite athletes, you want the very best technology available. The Short Track Gold Solution from Lynx provides the ultimate combination of field-proven technology and cutting-edge camera features that make accurate race timing faster and easier.

The Gold Solution includes software for event administration and a dual-camera hardware setup that provides race timing accurate up to 1/3,000th of a second. In addition, the Solution includes a 9-digit alphanumeric scoreboard and a user-friendly live results display software Solution that can generate scalable graphics for TV, internet, or closed circuit video transmission within the venue.

The EtherLynx Vision and Vision PRO cameras are enhanced with LuxBoost for improved low-light image captures and Phased Light Compensation (PLC), which adjusts the image quality to compensate for image distortions caused by artificial indoor lights.

Both photo-finish cameras in the Gold Solution are equipped with RadioLynx receivers, which means the start signal can be sent wirelessly across the network without needing to hard-wire the cameras to the starter’s pistol. It completely eliminates the need for cumbersome 500’ start cables. RadioLynx has a signal range of up to 2km (with direct line of sight) and even stores accurate time-stamps for each start that can be recalled later in the event of a transmission interruption. This same wireless start technology has been used for years at the highest levels of race timing and is available standard in the Gold Solution.

The Gold Solution also includes a battery-powered, 9-digit LED display that connects directly to FinishLynx to show live running times and finish times. The display’s onboard battery easily holds enough power to last throughout the longest race days.

Finally, the Gold Solution also comes with the ResulTV live results software. ResulTV pulls data directly from FinishLynx and lets timers produce scalable, customizable, and dynamic results graphics on video boards throughout the venue. And when the ResulTV computer is connected to a suitable scan converter, the graphics are even suitable for online video and broadcast television. Invest in the Gold Solution for your venue and enjoy the very
finest sports timing technology for your next speed skating race
