Can you answer the same question
for the hardware?
We have been able to create a stable
wireless hardware solution.
Our main achievement is the main
referee’s remote control, that gives
the option to control the game within
the playing field with all the necessary

All the actions and data of the game
are saved on the software and the results of the game can be seen online.
This gives the option of reducing the

game situations give the spectators a
better insight about the actions and

During the last season many people gave positive feedback about this
asset and called us the “talking scoreboard system.”

this system and did you design it?

than 15 years of experience in
our field in merchandise selling
and tournament organization
and judging, we also deal with
the timekeeping business for
auto and motorcycle racing
competitions in the Baltic region. Combining these unique
experiences we found a chance
for new product implementation. At the beginning we
tried to create a product for
personal use and to ease the
organizing of paintball events
but in the end it has devel-
