From the Slotlandia Milan Model Hobby Expo, introducing the new Slot.it Digital System:

oXigen
  • Slot racing digital system
  • Compatible with existing analog tracks and lap counters
  • 2.4GHz Wireless. 20 cars per track, up to 4 tracks
  • Open interface

Two operating modes:
  • Hybrid O2: no PC required, uses existing track accessories (lap counters, stop&go, etc)
  • Pure O2: completely PC controlled through radio interface

Hybrid 02
  • Works with or without PC
  • Completely compatible with traditional racing
  • Uses existing DS lap counters, Stop'n'Go, PCs.
  • Seamless Digital / Analog racing on the same track (during analog racing, oXigen lane changers stay straight and oXigen lap counting acts as a standard bridge, or the already existing bridge can be used).

Pure 02
  • Completely PC controlled
  • Mantains compatibility with analog tracks and racing (during analog racing, oXigen lane changers stay straight and oXigen lap counting acts as a standard bridge).
  • No need for external lap counters

How it works
  • SCP-1 cartridge talks to in-car module.
  • In-car module drives motor and talks to LC.
  • Hybrid O2: O2 lap counter talks to O2 interface to Lap Counters and existing Stop'n'Go box or PCs. DS lap counters, Stop&Go, PCs, etc work as usual to start and stop race.
  • Pure O2: PC talks to SCP-1 cartridge and (if optional smart LC module fitted on LC) to LC. Race management through PC.

Lane Change
  • O2 track pieces for Ninco and Scalextric track
  • O2 LC and LAP CTR track parts can be used inside Scalextric SSD systems (under licence from Hornby)

More oXigen
  • a whole new dimension for club slot car racing
  • mantain your existing investment AND analog racing
  • easy setup
  • developed and supported by Slot.it
  • compatible with SCP-1
  • add multi lane finish line and collision detection to Scalextric SSD (under license from Hornby plc)
  • racing starts in 2009 with dedicated championship
  • open interface for third party add-ons

We'll put up more info as it becomes available. This information is released at the start of the Slotlandia show. More news will come from the show so perhaps if anyone there reports later on we may get some more details.

I guess this might be part of the resason why the SCP-1 Digital module has been so long in getting to market?

Look forward to Maurizio coming on the Forum to put some meat on the bones. Hope that Rick has some involvement with Oxigen otherwise Scorpius has some competition. Not saying that competition is bad but the market for a third party wireless semi compatible but open system is only so big.

Establish whether the fault lies with the car, controller, or powerbase input. Or the concept of Digital slot racing....

Have to say that I am impressed. The Slot.It brand has high quality running through it so this sounds very interesting.

I can see running on 2.4ghz being a problem unless DSM technology is used. I wonder who will be the first with a full F1 grid!!
