You must have often heard people around you saying that Artificial Intelligence i.e. AI will change the world in the future. It has started being used in many places including offices. Now this technology is improving the performance of the players in the sports field and is also making their results better.
Yes, AI is now being used in technology-driven tournaments like Formula 1 car racing. She is working to improve both the practice and performance of F1 teams.
How AI is helping F1 teams, you can understand from the development taking place in the technology center of 60 year old F1 racing team McLaren in England. A report by CNBC explains how the company is using AI to improve the performance of Formula 1 cars on the racing track and improve their chances of winning the race.
McLaren has been using machine learning to improve decision making on the probability of winning a race. With its help she is training her AI models. McLaren also showcased several examples of this during the MTC event in October last year. For example, in its mission control room, McLaren did real-time data monitoring using this technology.
McLaren created 3D models of real Formula-1 racing cars with the help of AI. It is like a digital twin of the real car. This AI model helped McLaren to understand what kind of conditions real cars face on the track. The teams got the benefit of this in taking the right decision for the car during that time. Due to AI, the performance of cars has improved and daily operations have also become easier.
AI is not limited to this. Many other F1 racing teams are also using it. With the help of generative AI, F1 teams are getting more granular information on simulators, which are also warning about possibilities that the cars may have to face on the race track.
Aston Martin Aramco F1 team is also using features like 'Data Lake'. These are very big data storage centres. Using the data present in it, machine learning is helping in improving decision making and predicting race patterns.
