Track Cycling
High speeds, fixed gears and no brakes require top notch accuracy & reliability from timekeepers and organisers at Track Cycling events. The ProChip System was designed to uphold the standards of timekeepers, event organisers and all athletes, by providing the best race timing solution in the market.
Timing system for all track cycling races and events
✔ High speed accuracy ✔ Athlete detection and lap timing ✔ ProChip
Timekeeping at track cycling events is a huge challenge. Track cycling has many different disciplines, therefore athlete detection, lap timing and accurate results are of the essence.
Track cyclists can reach high speeds of up to 60km/h while having to be measured at an accuracy of 1/1000th of a second.
With these challenging conditions, events, clubs and timers simply need a system on which they can rely at all times.
Timing system
Our MYLAPS timing system for Track Cycling is the ProChip System. With ProChip you have different setup options for Track Cycling with the highest quality read-rates and accuracy in the industry.
ProChip TableTop Decoder
Attached to the detection loop, it decodes the transponder signal into the runner’s ID at the exact time at which the runner crossed the time line. The table-top decoder needs to be attached to an external power source.
Features
- Easy system set-up with simple wire antennas
- Easy to handle, easy to carry
- Intuitive operation
- Highly accurate GPS synchronization
- Connectivity through Ethernet
Detection loop
Detection loops are installed in the track, at the start, finish line and intermediate time points. The loops work as the system’s antennas, they pick up the ProChips signals.
The detection loop can be installed in every type of surface.
- Asphalt or concrete (not permanent): Use industrial quality adhesive tape to affix the loop to the course. Make sure you use high quality tape to secure the loop to the road.
- Ice: Cut slots of approximately 2 cm (1inch) deep in the ice, embed the loop wires and fill with water. Make sure to do this well in advance of an event, as the water will need some time to freeze.
- Snow: cut slots in the snow, approximately 20 cm (8 inch) deep. Place the loop wires in the slot and fill them with snow.
ProChip FLEX
ProChips can be used at many different types of sports. They come with ankle strap for use at triathlons, swimming and more.
The ultimate system for high-speed elite sports
All athletes have a ProChip FLEX attached to their ankle/wrist strap or bike in order to identify each participant and to record the exact time at which they pass the start, finish and intermediate time lines. Each ProChip sends out a unique signal to the ProChip system that is embedded in the track.
The ProChip FLEX: used for many different sports
The ProChip Flex can be used for many different types of sports. They come with ankle strap for use at triathlons, swimming and more. When used at cycling events it is recommended to mount the ProChip FLEX on the bicycle’s front fork, as close as possible to the front axle, by using cable ties.
