Abrégé

A device for detecting, monitoring and/or controlling racing vehicles on a preferably multi-lane racetrack, having at least one sensor unit which is arranged countersunk under the surface of a carriageway. The at least one sensor unit is mounted on a guide element which can be inserted into a receptacle space under the carriageway in the transverse direction with respect to the carriageway, from the lateral edge of the carriageway. In this context, cables, lines or the like can be pre-assembled in a complete state with the at least one sensor unit and can be inserted under the carriageway from the side together with the guide element, with the result that there is no need for any separate laying of cables or even for a cable connection once the sensor is in position.

A method and a device for controlling and/or monitoring a plurality of racing vehicles on a racetrack which are controlled by participants in a race is disclosed. Each racing vehicle provided with one vehicle memory in which vehicle data which are read out from a receiving/reading device assigned to the racetrack are stored in a database. Each participant in the race is provided with separate a participant memory in which participant data is stored, the participant data being read out from a receiving/reading device and stored in the database in which the vehicle data are also stored. The vehicle data and participant data which are stored in the database are assigned to one another. The vehicle data and participant data are read and the assignment of the vehicle data which are read with the participant data which are read is compared with the assignment which was previously assigned.

The present invention relates to a device and a method for detecting, monitoring and/or controlling (3) racing vehicles (V1, V2, Vn) on a racetrack (1), having at least one camera (7) for monitoring when a predetermined track section, such as a starting line and/or finishing line (50) is crossed, a recording device for recording the images provided by the camera, a recording control device (51) for automatically recording the images provided by the camera (7) only during a specific time window within which the crossing of the track section is to be determined, and a sensor device (53) for detecting the crossing of the track section. A marking device (54) generates a marking for a recorded image as a function of a sensor signal of the sensor device and the occurrence thereof in the specific time window, wherein storage means store the marking in an event list. An image of interest can be simply selected on the basis of the associated marking which is read out from the event list, without the images which are provided by the camera having to be evaluated themselves for this purpose, as a result of which the quantity of data to be processed can be reduced and shortened access times can be achieved.

The present invention relates to a method and a device for transmitting event data to a display unit and/or a data processing unit that can be connected thereto, wherein as event data both image sequences for displaying images of an event, particularly in the form of a TV image, and supplemental data for optical or acoustic display of additional information with respect to the event are transmitted from a transmitting device to the aforementioned display unit and/or the data processing unit that can be connected thereto. The invention provides that the event data is divided up, and is transmitted via several transmission channels having varying band widths, wherein at least part of the image sequences are transmitted via at least one transmission channel having a higher bandwidth, and at least part of the supplemental data are transmitted via at least one transmission channel having a lower bandwidth. In summary, as a result of splitting, that is, distributing the event data to be transmitted to various transmission channels, transmission channels of smaller band width can be used, and can be made better use of.

The present invention relates to a method and to an apparatus for transmitting event data to a display device and/or to a data processing device connectable thereto, wherein both image sequences for displaying images of an event, in particular in the form of a television image, and supplemental data for the optical and/or acoustic display of additional information relating to the event are transmitted as event data by a transmission device to the named display device and/or to the data processing device connectable thereto. In accordance with the invention, provision is made that the event data are split and are transmitted over a plurality of transmission channels of differing bandwidth, with at least some of the image sequences being transmitted over at least one transmission channel of higher bandwidth and at least some of the supplemental data being transmitted over at least one transmission channel of lower bandwidth. Transmission channels having smaller bandwidths - viewed overall - can be used and can be utilized better by the splitting up or dividing of the event data to be transmitted to different transmission channels.
