How it started

Innovation starts with experience

Our Optical Timing System marks a revolutionary shift in the race timing industry. Born from Khaled Azerkan's vision, the former founder of Racetimer, to eliminate the need for chips in timing road races. The goal is clear: drastically reduce the costs associated with race timing, making it more accessible, especially for smaller events.

Cost-effective

Optical timing reduces race timing costs by up to 50%, and with the option for organizers to own their systems, savings can reach up to 75%.

Simplicity

It eliminates the need for chips, radio readers, and antennas, streamlining the setup and reducing logistical challenges.

Accuracy

Provides precise timing for every participant, enhancing race integrity and participant satisfaction.

Accessibility

Makes advanced timing technology accessible to smaller events, allowing them to offer professional-level accuracy without the traditional costs.
How it works

The Technology Behind Optical Timing

Optical timing systems utilize high-speed cameras positioned along the race course, especially at the start and finish lines. These cameras capture images of participants as they pass, while AI algorithms analyze the visual data in real time to determine each runner's timing accurately. This method eliminates the need for ground mats or overhead structures that are essential components of chip-timing systems.

Optical Timing is a game-changer in race timing. With high-precision cameras and AI algorithms, we've eliminated the need for traditional timing chips. This not only simplifies the race setup process but also enhances accuracy and reduces costs significantly. It's designed to bring efficiency and reliability to race organizers and a better experience for runners.
