Standard timing features

Standard timing

Classic leaderboard

Ranking, last lap time, last sector times…

Timing history

All the timing data provided by the timekeeper. Data which can be exported in a lot of different file formats for post treatment.

Timing graphs

Lap times, sector times, speed traps for selected cars.

Track map

Positions of the cars on the track in real time. Cars are positioned with the timing loops or with their GPS positions when available.

Instant gap

Picture of the gaps between a selected car and the others.

Gap graph

Ranking in distance of selected cars, with or without extrapolation until the end of the race.

Race planner

Planning of the race for selected cars, with extrapolation until the end of the race.

Race direction messages

Messages from the race direction.

Advanced timing features

Advanced timing

Replayer

Possibility to move in time to watch the data at another moment than the current race time.

Timing analysis

The software automatically ‘cleans’ the data and computes ‘smart’ averages, to provide a ready to use dataset for statistics and analysis.

Speed analysis

When GPS positions are available, the software can compute the instant speed of each car, display it and compare it to the others.

Media features

Media

Video + audio

Video and audio streams can be displayed live, recorded and replayed synchronised with the timing data for post analysis.

Audio to text

Automatically transform into text an audio from a video or audio stream.

Custom features

Custom

Custom layouts

Users can create several layouts and arrange the windows depending on their needs. Layouts can be recalled quickly to display the requested information.

Table configuration

Each table is customisable, choice of columns, columns order, filters and sortings, this in order to suit the needs of each user.

Strategy engine

Compute the future using your own ‘in house’ strategy engine. Data will be exchanged over a REST API, allowing you to use any language to develop your own extrapolation model (Matlab, Python, C#, C++, Java, …).

Custom displays

User can define custom fields associated to laps, compute them with the strategy engine, and display them in views inside RaceCTRL.
