The project and its challenges
Rtone assisted Michelin in the implementation of a turnkey connected solution for its MICHELIN Track Connect tyre project for Formula E.
This is a major innovation in Formula E that Michelin has implemented by offering racers the possibility of driving with connected tyres during races.
This connected solution is in response to new rules imposed by the International Automobile Federation, which set new minimum data requirements for tyre pressure during races.
The sensors provide easier access to the data.
The application allows operators to visualise and control the results as quickly as possible.
Ambitious goals
For Michelin, this innovation is the new way to ensure the safety of vehicles and racers through the use of sensors on tyres.
For Rtone, accompanying Michelin in obtaining a functional product for the first race of the 2020 season in a timeframe of only 4 months.
Short deadlines, practical and technical constraints, and a common objective: to combine performance and excellence to deliver the MICHELIN track Connect.
