While serious racing enthusiasts keenly observe sectional timing, or split times between furlongs, "it's not in the culture of horse racing to focus on times," says Dr Hieke Brown, a lecturer in equine science and thoroughbred management at Oxford Brookes University.
For example, the countdown timers count only whole hours and minutes — not seconds — and the stopwatch function has no option for split-timing laps.
"If you're exactly on time, that means you engaged in split second timing," she says.
The results show that signal related countermeasures that are designed to reduce conflicts: split phase timing, signal installations, all pedestrian phase, and increasing pedestrian crossing time, reduce crashes.
The chronically late, on the other hand, often budget exact times, like 23 minutes, to get somewhere, a habit that DeLonzor calls "split second timing," which doesn't account for the inevitable delay factors that pop up.
If the heat shield survived and successfully protected Beagle, the probe would have used computer-controlled split second timing to fire charges, releasing parachutes to slow it to 200mph.
A parry system that requires you to time swipes and directional inputs to clash with your opponent's attack is fiendishly difficult, demanding split second timing and more practice than was afforded us during our all too brief time with the title.
Once cooked, the clams go into an onion-linguica-wine broth kept warm in a pan on the grill (which eliminates the need for split second timing).
Parkinson's disease can impair our ability to time intervals of a few seconds, for instance, but leave split-second timing intact.
For that she'd need split-second timing.
The power of uncompromising pure research and split-second timing is limitless.
