FIA Trials AI System to Enforce Track Limits in Formula One

The 'Computer Vision' technology aims to reduce manual reviews of potential infringements, tested at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Formula One's governing body, the FIA, is testing an AI system called 'Computer Vision' to help enforce track limits during races.
The AI system will help reduce the workload for officials by identifying clear violations, where a car's wheels entirely cross the track's white boundary line.
The system was trialed at the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
The FIA aims to reduce the number of potential infringements that officials manually review to around 50 per race.
Despite the AI's introduction, the FIA does not plan to fully automate reviews of track limits breaches for now, but sees real-time automated policing systems as the future.
