Frequently Asked Questions: Race Timing Systems
If you have questions or would like to learn more about race timing systems, check out the answers to our most frequently asked questions.
How do RFID race timing systems improve race management?
These systems streamline event operations by automating timekeeping, which reduces human error and enables faster results processing. They also allow for enhanced features like live tracking, split timing, and data integration with leaderboards or mobile apps.
What is the typical read range for RFID race timing systems?
The read range depends on the type of RFID tags and readers used, but most race timing systems achieve ranges between 3 to 20 feet. High-powered readers combined with high-gain antennas can extend this range, ensuring reliable tag detection even in wide or multi-lane setups.
Can RFID race timing systems differentiate between participants crossing the finish line at the same time?
Yes! RFID timing systems can detect and timestamp multiple participants simultaneously, down to milliseconds. This ensures precise results even in closely contested finishes or high-density race areas.
