Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 23 Journalists Posted April 23 Horse Racing Ireland (HRI) has upgraded the equipment and technology used to determine the outcome of photo finishes at all 26 racecourses across Ireland. From next week's Punchestown Festival there will be 12 state-of-the-art photo-finish cameras in use along with a number of large 4K ultra high-definition screens, which will be used to evaluate results. Graham Reid, HRI's Technical Operations Supervisor, said, “These new cameras have incredible capabilities, with even greater sensitivity in lower daylight and unbelievable high speed. “With 40,000 frames per second and a pixel density exceeding 5,000 pixels, no detail will be missed. The cameras deliver sharper, clearer images with the highest possible time differentiations. The new equipment reflects our dedication to delivering the best possible experience for our audience.” The post Enhanced Photo-Finish Technology for Irish Racing appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
