    In many competitive sports, the key to success lies in time, and many times the difference lies in the moment, which requires relying on fair and accurate timing.

 The traditional way is for referees to use stopwatches to time, which is not only inefficient, but also very error-free. By the end of last century, some foreign manufacturers and organizations were exploring the introduction of low-frequency and high-frequency RFID technology into the field of motion timing. However, because the labels are too complex and expensive, they are not widely used. After entering the 21st century, with the development of UHF RFID technology mature, it has been widely used in the field of motion timing.

     At present, many different kinds of sports labels have been developed for different sports types, such as water-resistant labels that can be recycled for water sports; Labels for disposable sports shoes for athletics; There are 2.45G active recyclable label, with long reading distance, strong immunity to interference, 100 percent reading rate characteristics, but the cost is also much higher than the general UHF RFID standard.

     RFID sports timing system is applicable in many fields, including track and field, marathon, walking, swimming, cycling, roller skating, relay and many other official events. In addition, there are many applications in school sports, physical fitness testing, as well as daily training and competitions in troops and military schools. In recent years, urban marathons have been rapidly emerging in major cities in China, and RFID timing systems have gradually become standard in this scenario. Because of the large number of marathon runners, a large amount of contestant information needs to be processed in a very short period of time, highly matched with the performance characteristics of UHF RFID technology. With the continuous improvement of living standards, sports and health awareness is also increasing, rfID timing system applications can bring you a better sports experience.
