High Precision Timing Service
South Fraser T&F and Ocean Athletics have jointly purchased the latest Finish Lynx camera called the Fusion. This is a wireless, colour camera with a maximum capture rate of 2000 frames per second.
Together with a wireless, fully automatic wind gauge, a wireless timing display clock, wireless start and 2 wireless computers, we are equipped to provide your event with high quality finish line timing good to 1 / 1000 of a second. We can provide our own tent, table and chairs. Mounted on our "Little Giant" extendable ladder, we are completely self reliant. Leave the video timing to us for stress free track meets.
Equipment Rental
The club can provide the equipment, set up, operation, take down and one operator at the rate of $500/day and $250/ half day. Wind gauge, display clock and photo results (linked to HyTek and or hard copy) and two laptops can handle track events as fast as it takes to set up the next heat.
2008 Events
Already in 2008, this timing service has been used for the Ismaili Games, ISEA schools Championships, South Fraser High School meet, Surrey and Fraser Valley High School Championships, Junior Olympics, Ocean Athletics high school invitational and will be used for the BC JD Pentathlon Championships and BC Masters Championships in June. In one day alone, we processed 106 track events with two extra operators entering names (the event used the sticky system and had no pre-entries).
Cross Country or Road Race Timing
Timing for Cross Country and Road races. With other automatic timing systems, the finish order can sometimes be incorrect resulting in teams losing out on team championships. With our Finish Lynx timing system, coupled with a full frame Lynx Systems video camera linked to the Fusion finish line camera we can use our timing system for 100% accurate timing of cross country and road race events. This processing can occur as the race is unfolding giving fast turn around using our wireless network of computers and printers.
Come to Ocean Athletic's Festival of Cross Country (including the BC High School Championships) this fall and see this finish line and full frame camera combination at work.
