IASAS Swimming 2013 Graphics Engine

The graphics keying and overlay engine for the IASAS 2013 swimming broadcast. Runs with a custom external hardware serial decoder and HTML5 WebSockets.

The displayer is separated into two subsections: dynamic and static. The dynamic side handles all the timing console graphics including the running time and splits, and the static side handles the graphics for results and intros.

Static graphics are based on [dosxuk's drawings]. All of them were redone in Illustrator with custom elements.

Tech

The engine uses python 2.7 and a number of open source projects:

• AutoBahn WebSockets - serial to browser link
• TKinter - easy to use python gui package
• jquery-csv - csv to jquery object parser
• LESS - the dynamic css language
• jQuery
