The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Asked by dastard in Miscellaneous

I am looking for some guidance and pointers to assist me in a new project.
What I wish to achieve is the following.
A sports event will take place with about 5000 participants. Each one
carries an electronic tag which contains a microchip with information about
the person . The chip relays information to a central database at various points along the race as the runner crosses a mat. At the end of the race, I want to take a picture perhaps a few
pictures of each participant as they complete the course. I then want to
print out these pictures together with relevant information such as the
finishing time. My question is, how do I do the picture taking
automatically? Should I be using a digital camera with some sort of
electronic switch or should I consider using a digital video recorder? I'm
really looking for advice to get me going on the right track. In an ideal
world, the microchip would trigger the picture taking as the participant
crosses the line and would then automatically upload two or three pictures
to the central database with the other information carried in the chip such
as the time, name etc.
