Real-Time Broadcasting
Broadcast the race.
Live.
Real-time GPS tracking, live splits, stroke rate, pace, and heart rate — streamed to coaches on the bank, commentators in the tower, and spectators on their phones. Every crew. Every race. Every training session.
Live Race Tracking
See every crew. Every metre. In real time.
Ludum Live tracks every boat on the course in real time via GPS. As crews move, the map updates — showing position, pace, stroke rate, and gaps between boats. Coaches on the bank see everything. Race officials see everything. No more guessing what's happening out of sight.
- Real-time GPS position for every crew on the course
- Live pace, stroke rate, and distance covered — updated every stroke
- Automatic gap calculation between boats — metres and seconds
- Works for head races, side-by-side regattas, and training pieces

Coach Live Feed
Live heart rate, stroke rate, and pace — for every seat.
The coach view goes deeper than the spectator feed. See real-time heart rate for every athlete in the crew alongside pace and stroke rate. Know who's in the red zone during a race piece. See if the rate is climbing or dropping. Make coaching decisions with data — not just what you can see from the bank.
- Per-athlete live heart rate with zone indicators
- Stroke rate trend — see drift before it becomes a problem
- Pace vs target overlay for structured sessions
- Secured coach view — only authorised coaches see athlete data

Event Management
Set up live crew tracking in minutes. Not weeks.
Create an event, define the course, assign crews, and go live. Ludum Live uses the GPS data already streaming from Ludum Row and Ludum Paddle — no additional hardware. For head races, regattas, or training pieces, the setup is the same: create, share, track.
- Define a course by dropping start and finish markers on the map
- Assign crews from your Ludum Team roster — no re-entry
- Auto-generates a spectator link and QR code for the event
- Multi-race support — manage a full regatta schedule from one dashboard

Broadcast Overlay
Add live data to any video stream.
Ludum Live generates a transparent overlay with live crew positions, pace, stroke rate, and gaps — designed for OBS, vMix, or any streaming software. Turn a static camera feed into a professional broadcast. Lower thirds update in real time as crews move through the course.
- Transparent overlay for OBS, vMix, and browser-based streaming tools
- Customisable lower third with crew name, pace, stroke rate, and gap
- Leaderboard widget for multi-crew races
- Brand-ready — add your club or regatta logo to the overlay
The race happens on the water.
Now everyone can see it.
Live data for coaches. Live results for spectators. Professional overlays for broadcasters.
How It Works

Name the event, drop course markers on the map, and set up the race schedule.
Assign Crews
Pull crews from your Ludum Team roster. Athletes already have the app — nothing to install.

GPS data streams from the athletes' phones. Everyone watches in real time.
Built on the Ludum Ecosystem
Live connects to everything your athletes already use.
No new hardware. Ludum Live uses the GPS and sensor data already flowing from Ludum Row, Ludum Paddle, and connected wearables.
“We've been asking for something like this for years. Being able to show parents and supporters what's actually happening during a race — live, on their phones — changes the whole event experience. And as a coach, having live heart rate data from the bank is something I never thought I'd have.”
