Fence! (Pro) is a more advanced version of Fence! Fence! (Pro) has been designed from the ground up for fencing referees. The app features easy to user timers, large button targets, and an uncluttered display. Optical scanning of standard FencingTime pool sheets lets you track fencers names, numbers, and results in your phone, saving you precious seconds at the end of every bout. Fence! (Pro) understands every aspect of a fencing match, from standard pools to DE bouts to team events. At every step, Fence! (Pro) knows what should happen next and makes it easy for you to move to the next step. (Time expired in the first period? The app immediately asks to start the rest break timer. Passivity time reached? Time for p-cards!) Fence! (Pro) incorporates the new USFA passivity rules and keeps a separate passivity timer, letting you keep your focus on the action. You can still use Fence! (Pro) in "practice" mode for simple bout situations.
Calibur Remote Controller
Read full descriptionHide full description
This app works as a remote controller for another application called Calibur. With Calibur, your phone or tablet becomes a fully functioning fencing scoring machine. When referring a bout with Calibur, refs manage the scoring app from the opposite side of the piste, just as they would with traditional scoring machine remotes. That is exactly why we built this companion app. Simply install it on a second device, connect both devices to the same wireless network, and you are ready to remotely control every essential function: • Start or stop the timer • Add or subtract minutes or seconds • Set yellow or red cards • Update the touch counter • Update the bout counter • Set priority manually or randomly Fast, intuitive, and designed to keep your refereeing smooth and stress free.
