Modern sport requires maximum accuracy inthe measurement of records that are set by athletes. But there are problems that hinder this. And in order to successfully solve them, people create special systems. They are able to recognize violations, reduce or even remove the error that occurs due to human errors.
The meaning of the word "false start" is already firmly seated inunderstanding of the Russian people, although not everyone understands where the word came from. The English say false start, which means wrong start or start. In general, this word is used in sports, where it is especially important that all athletes start performing some kind of action simultaneously.
By the way, some "experts" believe that it is correct to say "false start". They believe that this word was formed as a simplified one, from the merger of the two: fake and start.
For example, consider athletics.Immediately comes to mind the following picture: the Olympic Stadium. Heat. On the racetrack are 9 athletes and are preparing for the race. The first signal - and they took the bottom position. The second signal - they just got up in the pose, which is best to start. The third signal, which is accompanied by a shot - the athletes rushed forward after the victory. But why did they stop without running twenty meters?
The reason for this course of events is the usualfalse starts. This is a fairly common phenomenon in any race competition, so this situation does not surprise anyone. Such a stop occurs when one or more athletes start running before the necessary signal for the start of the race was sounded.
Falstarts are fouls that are in sport andbecause of which stop the race. According to the modern rules of athletics, if the athlete starts moving earlier than 100 milliseconds before the shot, then this action will be a violation. It is such a foul will be qualified as a false start.
For today in competitions usea special system that can help identify false starts - these are the so-called software complexes developed by Omega and Seiko. When registering any applications for the recognition of the results of races, established records, the availability of such a complex is one of the mandatory conditions.
The development of such systems began in the 20thcentury. Already in 1979, Omega realized that false starts - this is a serious problem that can affect the real results of the competition. The human factor is the absolute enemy in this matter, and it must be maximally automated.
The practice of automating auto-determinationfalse starts contributes to the fact that athletes concentrate their attention better after hearing the command: "At the start!" Athletics is a very difficult sport, and such trifles as fractions of a second often play a decisive role. It is thanks to special software packages that it is possible to measure with high accuracy and to prove the correctness of calculating the achievements of athletes in races.
Except as in the races, this concept is often found in other sports. Very often fixed false starts in swimming, when the athlete before the team begins to dive into the water.
Of course, everyone uses this word inordinary life, which does not apply to the world of sports. Telling a person: you made a false start, usually mean that a person hurried to do something, and it was because of this that he did not succeed.
