Spectator engagement

The result appears on screen as soon as you save the photo finish file. The scoreboard resizes to fit any display and is smart about which data it shows.

Text display reading “Quiet for the start please. Good luck athletes”

Announcements and overlays

Show text, a sponsor screensaver, the photo-finish line view, a full-screen clock or a countdown to the next event, several at once if you like. There's no need to remember to switch back: the next saved result returns every screen to results.
