Last night at the dojo a discussion started about electronic scoring (like the scoring used in fencing). Not sure how it got started, I think it was an excuse for a break because we were all exhausted.

Anyway some of the comments were, " How can you electronically score zanshin"? and " Well at least a men ippon would be a men ippon!, unlike the Takanabe/Ushimura final" (a bit harsh I thought).

I don't think I would like Kendo going in this direction. What are your thoughts?

I have done a search through the forum and can't find much on this. Apologies in advance if I have missed a thread!
