    1. when i was at university, i did a few days work taking pictures for a company that sold pictures of marathon runners. they did it based on taking photos at specific points and using timestamps, but i think they were moving to image recognition on bibs (as here) @conniechan/988982637019717633

    one fun bit was that they wanted to get the photos up as quick as possible - but uploading them from site would be too slow, so they overnighted the SD cards back to London and processed them there. i guess outsourcing the uploading as well as the photo taking solves that issue.
