AMB Activ
System Components The Elite
system is comprised of the transponder (1), decoder (2), detection
loop (3), and timing software on a laptop computer (4). The Activ system
is compact in design. |
|
|
|
|
|
1) Activ
Transponder: The transponder
attaches to an adjustable strap that wraps around the ankle of the athlete
and is secure in place with a hook and loop fastener. AMB transponders have internal long-life
batteries that switch on and off as the athlete crosses over each start,
split and finish line detection point.
The Activ transponder is designed for use in
high-speed cycling or mountain bike races.
It is ideal for use in many other sporting events where speed do not
exceed 40 miles per hour. |

2) Activ
Decoder: Similar
in size to a small hardback book, the Activ Decoder
is both reliable and very accurate.
The decoder is a very powerful timing device capable of automatically
timing dense packs of racers crossing/finishing at the same time. |
|
|
|
|
|
3) Activ
Detection Approximately
3mm in profile height, the Activ Detection Loop is
usually taped down to the race course providing very little resistance (if
any) to racers. The loop can also be
buried under the ground for locations that are not conducive to tape. The Activ
Detection Loop comes long enough to cover up to a 12mm/36ft course width. |
|
|
The AMB
system does not use bulky mats and the detection loop weighs only 2lbs. Providing split times for racers is now a realistic
and affordable option for an event. The loop
sends the unique signal transmitted by each transponder to the decoder, and
then on to the computer. |
|
|
|
|
|
4) Timing Software: The AMB Activ system is compatible with established race scoring software
programs such as Runscore. JMS Racing Services has been using Runscore since 1992. |
