PRODUCTS
All Emit's emiTag products have gone through thorough tests of Nemko (Norwegian Electrical Material Control), and passed by a good margin!
Emit AS has the following product areas:
– Electronic punching and timing system (EKT) for orienteering
This system has been developed in cooperation with the Norwegian and Swedish Orienteering Federation. The definitive breakthrough came in 1995 when EKT was used in all major international orienteering events, including the World Championships in Germany. EKT consists of
- a start unit that resets the eCard and enables the punching
- eCard for punching
- electronic control units
- a reading device that reads the information in the eCard when the runner has finished
– emiTag "chip system"
This system is mainly used in cross-country skiing, biathlon, orienteering, cycling and running.
EmiTag goals:
- Simplify timing
- Reduce the need for manpower
- Fewer errors
- Prompt and correct results
- Added value for enduser
- Enables organiser to focus on prime aspects of managing sporting events
– Traditional timing equipment
Emit has the most commonly used timing equipment in Norway.
