"All sports teams look for a real competitive edge in development speed and accuracy, but Formula 1 racing is the sport where this is most important. Looking to achieve crucial marginal gains on the track through technology, the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team is now using augmented reality (AR) technology from TeamViewer to enhance test and development efficiency, and speed up the build and preparation of test rigs."
"Based across technology centres at Brackley and Brixworth in the UK, Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team is the works team of Mercedes-AMG. The team brings together more than 1,000 dedicated and determined people who design, develop, manufacture and race the cars currently driven by multiple F1 Grand Prix winner George Russell and up-and-coming Italian Andrea Kimi Antonelli. The racing team describes Formula One as a sport like no other, combining elite teamwork, cutting-edge technologies and innovation, high-performance management and exceptional driving skill."
"The AR technology is helping the team streamline its development processes. Instead of working from printed guides, as in the past, the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team engineers can now use a tablet to see clear, real-time, AR instructions that show exactly how parts should come together. This manual checking from rig to paper proved to be a time-consuming approach, which has been sped up by the introduction of animated overlays showing step-by-step assembly sequences."
Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team deploys TeamViewer augmented reality (AR) to accelerate test rig build and preparation, replacing printed guides with animated overlays and tablet-based, step-by-step instructions. The team operates from technology centres in Brackley and Brixworth and comprises over 1,000 engineers and specialists who design, develop, manufacture, and race cars driven by George Russell and Andrea Kimi Antonelli. Formula One requires ultra-fine margins, so faster, more accurate test and development processes directly support performance and cost efficiency. AR implementation reduces manual checking, decreases errors, shortens assembly time, and helps get new components race-ready more quickly.
