The BridgePad™ scoring system, developed by a lifelong Duplicate
Bridge player, is a sophisticated, yet easy to use Contract Bridge
Scoring System for eliminating the distracting and time-consuming
tasks of the traditional paper-based scoring system. Paper recording
and manual entry of results into the scoring program is completely
eliminated along with scoring errors and disputes due to mis-readings.
Using the BridgePad™ system, the typical long wait for the final
results of a game is dramatically reduced - final results are
published almost immediately following the completion of the final
board.

What is the BridgePad™ system?
The BridgePad™ wireless scoring system consists of
A compact
battery-powered wireless
BridgePad™ Terminal at each playing table. Players enter
their contract and board results into the terminal after each
round.
A BridgePad™ Base Station
connected to a computer that receives scores from the BridgePad™
terminals via wireless transmission and instantly transfers them
to your scoring program.
BridgePad™ Software
that connects the BridgePad™ base station to the scoring program
.
The BridgePad™ terminals can not only send information to
your scorer, but also receives information to be displayed to
the players at the tables. Movement information from the scoring
program is used to determine which pairs and which boards are at
a specific table at each round of the game.
The BridgePad™ terminals can receive and display a
comparison of results for the board just played against results
obtained by previous teams playing the same board, and they
receive and display the final results of the game.
