Patented hardware for centimetric timing, track positioning, and race safety. Complementary to existing timing systems. Works where computer vision can't.
Motorsport safety technology has evolved, but critical gaps remain. These are the limitations that cost time, precision, and lives.
Computer vision fails with rain, brake smoke, water spray, shadows, reflections. It's visual interpretation, not physical measurement.
GPS has meter-level precision, not centimeters. Insufficient for track limits and precise timing.
Transponders measure passing a fixed point. They don't give continuous position across the entire track.
Incident detection depends on marshals who see, interpret, and react. Lost seconds that cost lives.
Three specialized chips working in unison to deliver centimetric precision, millisecond incident detection, and mesh communication. At a fraction of the cost.
Measures position of each car on track with 10-30cm precision. In fixed beacons around the circuit and in each vehicle. No GPS or weather dependency.
Accelerometer + Gyroscope detects impacts, loss of control, skids, G-forces in milliseconds. Triggers automatic alerts to entire network without human intervention.
Brain of the module. Processes data, manages mesh communication between all vehicles and beacons. Cost ~ USD 9.
| COMPUTER VISION (CURRENT) | ARCHANGEL UWB |
|---|---|
| Fails with rain, spray, smoke, shadows | Works in any weather condition |
| Requires HD cameras at every corner | Simple, cheap beacons on barriers |
| Video processing with delay | Real-time physical measurement, no delay |
| Subjective interpretation (pixels) | Objective centimetric precision |
| High installation and maintenance cost | Minimum cost per beacon |
| Vulnerable to angle manipulation | Non-interpretable data, direct measurement |
Position of each car centimeter by centimeter across entire track, real-time.
Lap timing with millimetric precision via OCXO clock synchronized to nanosecond.
Racing lines compared: each driver's trajectory superimposed for analysis.
Speed at every circuit point, not by GPS (meters of error) but by UWB (centimeters).
Automatic curve-cutting detection via UWB trajectory. No cameras, no computer vision.
Automatic yellow flags: impact detected, instant alert to all cars in zone.
Automatic virtual safety car: system limits speed without human intervention.
Automatic penalties for track limits without video review.
Impact detected in milliseconds. All cars behind know about the accident before arriving.
Slow car detected: mesh alerts those approaching at 300 km/h.
Impact G-force data transmitted to medical team instantly.
Driver doesn't need to be conscious. System alerts automatically.
Archangel Racing doesn't replace existing timing systems. It complements them with a hardware layer that doesn't exist today.
TC, Super TC2000, Turismo Carretera, Formula Nacional.
Stock Car Brasil and regional LATAM categories.
Where there's no budget for European systems.
Circuits needing timing/safety upgrade without investing millions.
International categories seeking complementary hardware.
Archangel Racing offers the precision hardware that current timing systems don't have. Complementary, not competitive. Ready to integrate. Patented. Made in Argentina.
Every component has a clear upgrade path toward automotive certification, global V2X compliance, and racing-grade precision.
Nanosecond-level clock synchronization for centimetric lap timing. At 200 km/h a car covers 1 cm every 180 microseconds. Standard oscillators drift 50µs/second — unacceptable. OCXO stability of ±1 ppb keeps anchor clocks synchronized to within 10 nanoseconds, enabling millimetric timing precision even between UWB sync events. Deployed in fixed beacons via IEEE 1588 PTP.
The same technology that protects on the track, reimagined for every road.
