Ipico Technology

TECHNOLOGY:

IPICO Elite Reader

IPICO Sports Dual Frequency technology provides:

Reliable Read Rates – Transmitters and Receivers always on,
competitors alternate between the two which allows for missed reads.

Data capture 50 times faster than Championchip

Immunity to interference from:
metals  (metal fencing)
liquids (precipitation, sweat)
carbon (human bodies)

Capacity  - Software algorithm allows simultaneous reads hundreds
of athletes on a  single 2.5M mat

The IPICO Timing System employs an IPICO IP-X dual-frequency
passive tag embedded in a piece of plastic a bit smaller than a
business card, which has holes to accommodate being laced onto the
top of a running shoe, as well as interrogator antennas that can be
integrated into mats installed along a course; the antennas are linked
to readers networked to a back-end server. The IP-X dual-frequency
tag is powered by a signal from a low-frequency (125 kHz to 135 kHz)
interrogator, but the tag uses a high-frequency (13.56 MHz) signal to
transmit its data to the reader.

    The Estes Park Marathon made the decision to change to chip timing as part of our continued progress to present professional running events. We had two main concerns on selecting a chip timing provider, cost and the ability to cope with our relatively complex and demanding multiple race schedule. We evaluated a number of providers, and chose Colorado Race Timing. Colorado Race Timing already knew details of our events, and were competitive on price. Ultimately we were very pleased that we chose Colorado Race Timing - they not only made the transition to chip timing painless, they also coped amazing well with the heavy unseasonal rain that fell most of race weekend. Multiple starts in different locations, including two simultaneously, were all handled with professional ease. They also handled any communication between our registration staff on race weekend in a relaxed and helpful manner. Any questions or concerns we had were dealt with promptly, courteously, and professionally. We can definitely recommend Colorado Race Timing for your race event timing provider.

    Colorado Race Timing was such an amazing organization to work with. We work our events from out of state and Simon and his crew made getting the event ready a lot easier for us. It was nice not having to work about getting to the park early, marking the route and placing the volunteers. Colorado Race Timing did this all for us. Simon and his crew are very knowledgeable on how to setup and run a 5k and it was nice bouncing ideas off of them. We will definitely be using them for our race next year!

    Colorado Race Timing provided professional chip timing service during the 8th annual Spank Blasing 5K/10K Run & Walk. Our event has grown over the years to over 450 participants and we were in need of a dependable timing company. Colorado Race Timing was organized and worked well with the participants to make sure times were accurate and the results posted as soon as possible. I would highly recommend Colorado Race Timing.
