Race Announcer - Racers love to hear their names announced as they cross the finish line. A handful of people win their age group, but for the rest, nothing provides that "warm, fuzzy" feeling like the thrill of hearing your name. Many races try to do this, but 1000 registrants means a 20-page list of names - you just can't look someone up very fast, and in order to do so, you have to take your eyes off the race. Race Announcer solves this problem by providing a simple interface by which the race announcer (or the announcer's assistant) simply taps the bib# of an approaching finisher into large, on-screen buttons, and immediately sees displayed the name, home town, sex, age, and category for the racer. The screen also displays the current time (in case the announcer can't see the race clock) and pace (in case the announcer isn't capable of mentally converting a 35:20 10K finish into a 5:41 min/mile pace). And finally, the display will also show any special notes you attached (in your registration database) to that racer: "Last year's overall winner","President of the company which is sponsoring the race". Whatever the detail, the fact that the announcer has instant access to this information will provide a major bonus to the race announcing process.
