Sports competition timing chronometer and data processing system

摘要

The timing system (D) includes an acquisition unit (2) to collect time data (6) from at least a timed event measuring sensor (8) which is then stored (9) and processed (4). The storage unit (9) is connected to an interface (1) so as to permit the processing unit (4) to access the storage unit (9) and to read some of the timing data (6) stored in the unit (9) without permitting any modification to the storage unit (9) by the processing unit (4). The acquisition unit (2) is designed to be able to receive a pre-determined particular programme to generate the storage of the timing data (6) in the storage unit (9). The processing unit (4) is designed to load the programme in the unit (2) after having obtained access via the interface (1).
