Overcome tight space and power limits with Arm-powered sensors engineered for high-resolution wind tunnel testing.
Accelerate F1® innovation through a closed-loop feedback system that instantly connects tunnel, simulation, and track insights.
Designing Within Extreme Constraints
Building a wind tunnel model to new FIA regulations (60% scale) brings intense technical constraints:
- Thousands of miniaturized, high-sensitivity sensors
- Limited physical space and power budgets
- Compressed time windows for testing
The goal is to capture and process ultra-high-resolution aerodynamic data in real time, then use AI to filter signal from noise—helping engineers identify meaningful performance gains earlier in the development cycle.
Accelerating Insight Through AI and Arm Architecture
Arm provides a complete edge-to-cloud compute foundation:
- Embedded processors power each sensor with efficiency and precision.
- AI-capable SoCs perform real-time inference at the edge.
- Low-power, high-performance silicon helps ensure uninterrupted, high-volume data collection.
In the CoreWeave Wind Tunnel, sensor outputs flow into a quantum database, where they’re validated against computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations and compared with real-world telemetry. This intelligent pipeline—powered by Arm—streamlines the entire aerodynamic feedback loop.
Performance Amplified by AI and Arm Compute
- 10X more data points captured and processed per session
- Accelerated upgrade cycles, thanks to real-time AI-driven insights
- Integrated performance feedback loop across tunnel, track, and simulation
With Arm at the core, Aston Martin Aramco Formula One® cuts the latency between insight and implementation—translating innovation into on-track performance, faster.
