    For the 36th Ryder Cup Golf Tournament held in Dublin, Ireland, Sept. 22 to 24, graphics and timing technology provider MST Systems chose Harris’ Inscriber RTX HD real-time 2-D/3-D graphics platform.

    MST, using its own software to control the system, used the RTX HD to provide up-to-date player statistics and score information live from the course. It provided graphics for both worldwide and domestic feeds on behalf of a number of broadcasters, including the BBC, Sky Sports and Ireland’s public service broadcaster, RTE.

    The RTX HD platform enables users to create layouts consisting of such elements as 3-D animation, multiple layering, live and digital video and data from multiple sources, using common programming languages.
