Timing for Speed Skating & Short Track

The ProChip Timing System is ideal for high-speed sports like speed skating and short track. Easy to use and flexible, it supports both personalized chips for athletes and rental options provided by timers.

Speed Skating & Short Track Timing

Timing system for Speed Skating & Short Track

Timekeeping for speed skating and short track events is highly demanding. With three disciplines in speed skating, accurate athlete detection, lap timing, and results are crucial.

Short track requires rapid detection rates and quick result publication, while professional skaters reach high speeds needing 1/1000th-second accuracy. In such conditions, events, clubs, and timers need a system they can trust completely.

  • High speed accuracy
  • Athlete detection and lap timing

SYSTEM SETUP

Timing system setup for Speed Skating & Short Track

The MYLAPS timing system for Speed Skating & Short Track is the ProChip System. With ProChip you have different setup options for Speed Skating & Short Track with the highest quality read-rates and accuracy in the industry.

    How it works

    Detection Loop

    Detection loops, acting as antennas, are installed at start, finish, and intermediate points to detect ProChip signals and ensure accurate timing.

    Their versatility allows installation on almost any surface—such as asphalt, dirt, or grass—making them ideal for various sports and events.

    • Installation: Asphalt/concrete, Ice, Snow, Sand
    • Length: Available from 6M to 16M
    How it works

    ProChip Decoder

    The table-top decoder connects to the detection loop, converting transponder signals into runner IDs with precise timing. Lightweight and portable, it features simple setup, intuitive operation, GPS synchronization, and Ethernet connectivity for seamless integration.

    • Feature: Highly accurate GPS synchronization
    • Connectivity: Ethernet
    How it works

    ProChip FLEX or Timer (Go)

    Skaters attach a ProChip FLEX to their ankle, enabling precise identification and timing as they cross start, finish, and intermediate lines. Each ProChip emits a unique signal to the track’s embedded ProChip system.

    The ProChip FLEX is a personal transponder that allows riders to access their race and practice results on Sporthive at any time.

    • Timing Resolution: 0.003 sec
    • Housing: Water- and shockproof
    How it works

    Timing Software

    Timing a race and creating reliable results, is a challenging task. Pick the software that is most fitting to your timing needs.
