eDressage provides a full replacement for traditional paper sheets, by providing a simple and intuitive interface to allow the judges’ marks and comments to be recorded and transmitted in real-time to the scorers. The judges can sign the test-sheet either with a finger or Apple Pencil and the full, final result is available to the spectators, commentators and rider, within seconds of the final salute. This saves both time and, with the comments being transmitted securely to the database, eliminates the need for a separate paper-scribe. Because the electronic sheets are signed by the judges, the final classification for the competition is ready within seconds of the final competitor, allowing almost instantaneous prize-giving ceremonies; giving added incentive for all spectators to stay for the presentations.
