Tools to extract live data
Pull specific parameters from the */current API to show live values in the browser. Handy tools to feed overlays for TV production and web broadcasting.
- The grabber is an HTML file and runs locally.
- Adjust the grabber in an editor with the settings in the tables.
- The grabber pulls one specific parameter from the */current API and shows a list of current values of all devices in a browser.
- Monochrome background.
- The */current API must be activated and switched on.
deviceId
refDeviceId
Option 1: With set
deviceId
the grabber shows the parameter for one specific participant instead of a list with all participants. Option 2: Set
refDeviceId
or refStartNumber
for calculation with reference device instead of the leader device.
gapAverage
, gap
, gapChase
and gapDistance
are calculated for the leader (device with smallest toFinish
) by default. 
Option 1
deviceId = "6336f41309be310001a58976"
to show one participant only
Option 2
refDeviceId = "6336f41309be310001a58971"
to show gapDistance to team PLAN:LOS

refDeviceId | Option 2: id of a reference for calculation of gapAverage , gap , gapChase and gapDistance | 6336f41309be310001a58977 |
refStartNumber | Option 2: Bib of a reference for calculation of gapAverage , gap , gapChase and gapDistance | 053 |
Download the basic grabber for your usage. The file (grabCurrentAPI.html) is set to call a sample event with infinite real-time data.
- The table sorts all devices in ascending order according to the
toFinish
parameter. - "To previous"-column shows the distance to the device that moves ahead.
- "Draft time"-column starts counting the time when the device is moving within the draft zone (
alertValue
in [m] set distance to the device ahead). - "Drafts"-column detects a draft when drafting takes longer than the set
alertTime
in [s]. - Hover over the number of drafts for additional information.

Christoph overtakes Konrad monitored by the drafting tool. At 14:27:31 Christoph was moving for 44s in the draft zone behind Konrad.
Download the drafting tool for your usage. The file (grabCurrentAPIDrafting.html) is set to call a sample event with infinite real-time data.
- Define up to three different spots (distance from start in m).
- The table sorts participants in the sensitive range (
rangeBeforeSpot
andrangeAfterSpot
) coming closer to the spot.

Real-time information from anywhere on the race-course e.g. for the speaker.
