When handing off the baton in a relay race, which type of take-over involves the outgoing runner seeing the incoming runner?

In a relay race, a Visual take-over is the method where the outgoing runner can see the incoming runner. This type of take-over allows the outgoing runner to be visually aware of the incoming runner's position, speed, and readiness to pass the baton. By keeping their eyes on the incoming runner, the outgoing runner can better judge when to start running, when to extend their hand, and how to receive the baton smoothly, reducing the risk of dropping the baton during the exchange.

In contrast, in other types of take-overs such as the Blind take-over, the outgoing runner takes the baton without looking back at the incoming runner. The Visual take-over ensures a coordinated and efficient hand-off, which can be especially useful for beginners or in more informal race settings.
