"GCP use the Witty timing gates with a wide range of athletes. They enable us to test speed and agility quickly and easily with minimal set up and minimal fuss. Ours have survived multiple journeys on aeroplanes have travelled all over the UK and still work brilliantly. We would recommend a set to anyone looking to collect speed and agility data on their athletes."

"The WITTY SEM has become a valuable testing tool used in our sports department for teaching, research and enterprise, and also in the wider science department. It’s flexible and easy to use, anything from a simple reaction test involving 1 SEM to a complex visual perception trial with distractions. Creating our own tests on the handheld device and in the supplementary software really helped tailor every aspect of our session and produced the variables we needed for our outputs.”
- Dan Cooley, Senior Technician, Teeside University -
“For over two years now we have extensively used the Optojump system in all aspects of academic activity and are delighted with its functionality.”
