For the 10th anniversary of KOREA 50K, TS Display supplied a customized split flap display designed as an interactive race result board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After completing the race, participants could tap or scan their race card at the result station. The event system identified the runner, retrieved their individual race information, and displayed their race category, participant number and finishing time on the split flap display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result was more than a conventional scoreboard. It became part of the finish-line experience, combining race data, mechanical movement and a memorable photo moment for each participant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

KOREA 50K wanted to create a more engaging way for participants to view and celebrate their race results during its 10th anniversary event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of using only a conventional digital result screen, the project incorporated a mechanical split flap display into the post-race experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TS Display produced a 3 \u00d7 8 split flap scoreboard using 24 modules<\/strong>, each measuring 20 \u00d7 15 cm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The display was connected to the event\u2019s result workflow so that participant-specific information could be shown after a runner identified themselves using their race card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the participant was recognized, the system could call up the relevant race information and present it on the split flap display, including the race category, participant number and recorded finishing time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This transformed individual race data into a physical, mechanical display that runners could see, hear and photograph.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Interactive Race Result Experience<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A key feature of the installation was its personalized interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After finishing the race, participants could tap or scan their race card at the result station using a contactless race card identification system<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event system then identified the participant and retrieved the corresponding race result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The information was sent to the split flap display, which changed mechanically to show the runner\u2019s individual data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A typical result could appear as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONGRATS<\/strong>
50K 5603<\/strong>
07:05:43<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This made the display different from a traditional fixed scoreboard. Each participant could generate their own personalized race result on the same mechanical display.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
