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.

Basic grabber

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
Without deviceId: list of all participants

Download the basic grabber for your usage. The file (grabCurrentAPI.html) is set to call a sample event with infinite real-time data.

Drafting tool

  • 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.

Spotter tool

  • Define up to three different spots (distance from start in m).
  • The table sorts participants in the sensitive range (rangeBeforeSpot and rangeAfterSpot) coming closer to the spot.
Real-time information from anywhere on the race-course e.g. for the speaker.
