Telemetry
Telemetry refers to the wireless transmission of measurement data from a vehicle during operation. In motorsport, this includes data such as speed, engine speed, temperatures, accelerations and vehicle dynamics.
Vehicle Dynamics
Vehicle dynamics describes the motion behaviour of a vehicle under the influence of forces such as acceleration, braking and cornering. It forms a fundamental basis for setup decisions and simulation activities in motorsport.
Digitalization
Digitalization in motorsport encompasses the use of digital systems for data acquisition, analysis, simulation and decision support. It affects both technical and organisational processes.
Motorsport Management
Motorsport management refers to the organisational, strategic and economic coordination of a racing team or racing operation. This includes resource planning, personnel organisation and strategic decision-making.
Data Analysis
Data analysis comprises statistical and algorithmic methods for evaluating large data sets. In motorsport, it is used for performance optimisation, fault analysis and strategic planning.
Race Strategy
Race strategy describes tactical decisions made during a race, such as tyre selection, pit stop planning or energy deployment. Modern race strategies increasingly rely on real-time data and simulation.
Digital Twin
A digital twin is a virtual representation of a real system that is continuously updated with live or recorded data. In motorsport, this concept is used for simulation and optimisation of vehicles and systems.
Vehicle Safety
Vehicle safety encompasses all technical measures designed to protect the driver. This includes structural concepts, restraint systems and data-driven safety analyses.
Simulation
Simulation refers to the computer-based reproduction of real-world processes. In motorsport, simulations are used to virtually test vehicle behaviour, race strategies and technical modifications.
Technology Transfer
Technology transfer describes the process of transferring innovations from motorsport into series production vehicles. This typically occurs incrementally, taking technical and regulatory requirements into account.
