Electronic Punching and Timing system (EPT)
This system is developed in association with the Norwegian and Swedish
orienteering federations. The definitive breakthrough came in 1995 when
EPT was used in all major international orienteering events including the
WOC in Germany. The Norwegian orienteering federation then decided that
EPT must be used at all IOF-E. EPT consists of a start unit that resets
and activates the e-card, the e-card that the runner uses to 'punch' at
the controls, electronic controls and a reading unit that reads the
information in the e-card when the runner has finished.
Software
We can offer software: for many
sports, either our standard eTiming software for orienteering, road races,
or cross country races, or by custom design software for larger races.

EMIT’s profile has risen
sharply in the UK recently since it has been used at the National Outdoor
Centre at Glenmore Lodge, Aveimore. Used for a World Championships in 1999
in Scotland and now confirmed as the preferred electronic punching timing
system for the British Army for three main reasons:
1. Robust and ‘soldier-proof’ able to stand being roughly handled.
2. Proven to be more reliable, especially at extreme temperatures.
3. System is simple to operate and can be used without a computer
Emit ECard gives split times and chip timing for all sort of sports.
Emit's new chip timing system was been used for a wide range of races
since 2002. EmiTag is a chip system with low cost and easy setup. Drammen
Marathon had 42 split times and Oslo Half Marathon had 21 split times.
Display on e-cards gives
fast punching and immediately split times.
Version 3 of emit e-cards, on sale from 2002, gives many improvements to
electronic punching. The display gives you the possibility to check
correct punching while you compete and the display tells you if you
visited the correct location. After the race you can use the display and a
scroll button to step through your splits. Display e-card also has
features such as count down to start and hands-free punching.

Future Developments
|
1. Proximity
punching is a new way of timing for a range of sports and
activities. Emit already make extensive use of their larger Eline
wireless controls, with ranges from 5 to 500m, for large races and
also for smaller running, cycling, cross-country skiing and
increasingly orienteering events. With these smaller versions the
competitors must pass within one metre of the control. |
 |
The E-card display confirms
you have punched successfully. An integrated battery powered electronic
control panel 20x20 cm is mounted on one panel of the control flag. System
allows much faster punching than other systems and is suitable for a wide
variety of sporting and educational activities.
2. Online Entries System
EMIT UK have recently acquired the capability to offer an online entry
system and have created the website link at
www.ntrees.co.uk
This will allow those using EMIT to direct entrants to a website where
they will be able to make their entries online, paying as necessary by
