Abstract
An automatic judging and display system for rock climbing competition includes a rock climbing wall with a plurality of spaced apart holds secured thereto. One set of holds is associated with a first color and another set of holds is associated with a different color. An RFID tag is located on the wall immediately beneath each hold and uniquely identifies that hold. The climber carries an RFID tag reader on his or her wrist which wirelessly transmits information to a computer system which then analyzes and records the signal and sends it to a display mounted adjacent the top of the wall to be viewed by spectators.
