Timing information

Brad,

I know the chips are just like those used for access control
and Bike datatag applications about the size of a grain of
rice inside some sort of encapsulation triggered powered and
read by an antennae in the mats at the start finish etc.
Thats the resonably easy part the hard part is taking the
data stream they generate and tying it into some sort of
timing and athlete ID system that is automated. I'm trying
to develop a system our club here in the UK can use for
small events so if anyone has any ideas or knows of anything
let us all know.

I'm interested in the devices used, velcro anklets with

them (what kind?) sensors on the start/finish line, etc. I
have a very technical background so don't be afraid of
