    • The biggest cost is the cameras - the automatic caputure plugin is a very small cost in comparison.
    • Try Craig Grylls, Opee, Sammy Collett, Matt Cartwright, Leah Hemi, Kelly Myers et el...ANY Jock who wants an RIB blessing (complicit with tacit approval) tick WITHOUT penalty then observe and watch this video shocker from last Friday...only the head on here...but it's obvious what's going on Toni Davies on the rails leader OVERRATED...the whip in the forehand position, vertical skywards...then assaults the head/neck with total intent for an audio storm where it shoots clear and hangs on Against the rule..."no contact forward of the shoulder or in the VICINITY of the HEAD"...any horseman can easily recognise the intent  https://loveracing.nz/Common/SystemTemplates/Modal/Video.aspx?v=http%3a%2f%2fwww.racingreplays.co.nz%2fmedia%2f202512%2fM4_TAKI_R07_041225.mp4&i=%2fCommon%2fImage.ashx%3fw%3d565%26h%3d314%26a%3d1%26o%3d1%26z%3d1%26bg%3deeeeee%26p%3dhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.racingreplays.co.nz%2fmedia%2f202512%2fM4_TAKI_R07_041225.jpg&r=Race 7 - EYEZ ON ICE R65 1800M&rs=1 It's not only an assault on the head/neck region of our beloved thoroughbreds but it's an assault on the integrity of racing along with the dignity of our best mates The Noble Thoroughbred..it's truly shocking what's going on and I have a disgraceful head on screenshot of Kate Hercock striking the ear and eye of her mount when winning on Saturday..without a question from the RIB
    • So NZTR didn't buy the Automatic Capture Mode (ACM)?  The manual you are quoting from is for the athletics system not racing.  However that system does have a motion sensor which activates the camer recording.  As you point out the most expensive parts of the system are the cameras because the record images at very very high frame rates e.g. 1,000 to 20,000 (or more) frames per second.  The standard TV programme is broadcast at 25 fps by comparison - hence the inaccuracy of using a video recording to determine who won.   The Trackside cameras do record in HD 4k but the frame rate will unlikely to be much higher than 60fps.  
    • FFS I'm not arguing I actually said the manual activation of the camera by a Judge is one option but NOT the recommended option!!  There are two other automatic options.  I watched the HKJC video you posted and I must have missed where they said "they pressed a button"!   So I gather you are suggesting that the Judge forgot to press the button?  Are there technical reasons for not using an auto activation feature?   Ellerslie have recently installed the TripleSData system (when they built the new track) which can include a photo finish system.  My understanding is that it is auto activated.  Happy to be corrected if I'm wrong.
    • NZ racing would be to budget to get the automatic capture eye…these cameras cost upwards for NZ$30k
