Welcome back to the Future Car Podcast, and an episode we know that you will enjoy. This week, we are joined by Cartier Brown, co-founder of Avicar, a company using remote reality technology to race sports in cars in the first private motor racing league of its kind. Here’s what you can expect from the full episode, which will go live later this week 👇
An introduction to remote reality 🚙
A similar immersive technology to virtual reality and augmented reality, but with a twist. Avicar pioneers technology that relies on live stream cameras; you can experience other environments in the real-world, in real-time. A potentially game changing technology in the world of motor racing!
The emergence of the ‘Smart Track’ 🏁
Learn how Avicar are creating a track that communicates with the car, and why that is absolutely critical to drastically the dangers that come with remote racing,
Merging competitive racing with wearable technology 👔
You may be thinking, how can you experience the true feeling of driving a race car, without being sat behind the wheel? Well, Avicar are marrying the racecar with haptic technology to simulate g force compression or scraping the wall with the tyres.
