Abstract: The winner of a race is determined by pointing the viewing axis of a camera having separate charge coupled devices sensitive to visible electromagnetic radiation and invisible electromagnetic radiation in a direction transverse to a vertical plane intersecting the finish line. A beam-splitter directs visible light to the visible CCDs for forming a visible image and invisible light to the invisible light CCD for providing range information. Superimposed images of contestants as they cross the finish line provide a real time display of their body portions “breaking through” a display background to make the winner readily apparent.
