Traffic Sign Recognition helps customers stay within the speed limit but we\u2019ve taken learnings from that system to help us understand when to push and when we can afford to ease off \u2013 optimising energy management throughout a race.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adopting digital vision systems with image recognition as the enabler for the new energy strategy modelling process delivered a step-change in speed, accuracy and flexibility compared to the tools used previously, and is future-proofed to make even more detailed analyses possible in seasons to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technology transfer is one example of advances in Jaguar\u2019s road cars being used to support success on the track. This advantage is complemented by the on-going application of knowledge gained from the extremes of racing to improve vehicles such as the all-electric I-PACE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most significant benefits to date \u2013 underpinned by invaluable learning gained from the I-PACE eTROPHY race series and Formula E \u2013 was a software update to the<br>I-PACE introduced in December 2019 which gave customers worldwide up to 20km more real-world range from a full charge. This was delivered though further optimisation of battery management, thermal systems, regenerative braking and all-wheel drive torque distribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The on-going collaborative partnership between engineers in Jaguar Racing and those working on core Jaguar vehicle programmes ensures that knowledge, processes and technologies continue to pass from road to track and vice-versa. This is helping to deliver greater performance and efficiency in further development of the I-TYPE and Jaguar\u2019s future electrified vehicles including the next-generation all-electric XJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find out more about Jaguar cars, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jaguar-me.com\">www.jaguar-me.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Panasonic Jaguar Racing is applying digital vision technology developed using insights derived from the brand\u2019sTraffic Sign Recognition systems to boost racing success withthe Jaguar I-TYPE 4.
