Formula Center ItaliaRESEARCH · DEVELOPMENT · HUMAN TELEMETRYMotorsport is Humetry's first testing ground: following physiological signals during competitive activity and understanding them together with what happens in the race.
The idea, born by Davide Venditti together with his father Gaetano, takes shape with the support of the family in a system to be worn under the driver's suit, to monitor the signals while driving.
The research involves complementary skills: MegaRide, ART, the university world and collaborations with the University of Naples Federico II. The work with ACI Sport also brings the system into the path of young drivers.

Performance, training, mental coaching and nutrition: four dimensions of preparation already at the center of the Humetry RACE project.
The lap time tells the result. Human telemetry was created to support a reading of the driver: observing the physiological signals while driving and relating them to the moments of the session.
A starting point for discussion between the driver, technicians and trainers.
From the demands of the track to preparation outside the cockpit. The Humetry approach puts the person and their work over time at the center, to offer trainers useful elements for setting up and reviewing individual paths.
Training, observation and discussion: a path to be built with the trainer.
The old RACE project dedicated specific space to managing stress on the track. The objective remains to understand the most challenging situations and support the coach's work with information collected in the context of the guide.
The reading of the signals integrates with the driver's story and experience.
Preparation also includes nutrition. In the RACE path, information on the activity is designed as a support for discussion with the nutrition professional, for a plan suited to individual needs and the sporting calendar.
The food plan is defined by the professional, as part of personal preparation.
These areas describe the RACE application path: the new generation functions require development and verification.
The first prototype is RCST Human Telemetry System: the origin of the subsequent Humetry technology.
The project was presented at the San Raffaele Telematic University of Rome. The driver's intuition of telemetry begins its public journey.The presentation · FCI archive ↗
The work on the track involves Fabio Venditti in Formula 4 at Vallelunga and Davide Venditti in the Lamborghini context at the Nürburgring, with the support of research skills.
The experimentation involves the drivers of the 15th Supercorso Federale Rally and the 1st Italian Shoot-Out in Tempio Pausania. A decisive stage of the rally journey.ACI Sport · event archive ↗

The heritage developed by FCI is the starting point for an initiative dedicated to sport, being evaluated with sector players.
The first intended destination is competitive automotive motorsport. The path requires specific development, industrialization and checks before the introduction of a commercial product.
The dialogue with the sporting world also includes discussions with CONI and its Institute of Sports Medicine and Science.
The driver's preparation and telemetry reading are developed through discussion between people, skills and real contexts.
Alongside the main device in contact with the skin, the motorsport configuration includes a matching bracelet. The measurements to be developed include hand movements, information on the pressure exerted on the steering wheel and the continuous galvanic skin response (GSR).
The glucose module on the arm completes the expected architecture, common to the different versions.
Physiological signals, movement and a planned glucose module
Bluetooth from wearables, vehicle telemetry and live GPS location
Expected real-time transmission and integrated data readout
Architecture planned for the new generation · integrations and performances to be developed and validated.
In motorsport, a control unit inside the vehicle takes the place of the home charging hub. The project involves the acquisition via Bluetooth of the driver's Humetry data and the main car data: G forces, acceleration, speed, steering and braking.
The RACE control unit will also detect and transmit the driver's live GPS position on the track, together with physiological and car data. The synchronized reading will allow you to locate anomalous variations and stress peaks and to delve into their possible causes in the driving context.
The GPS position detected by the control unit in the car connects the driver's signals to the track. The visualization allows you to identify where variations and stress peaks emerge, comparing them with what happens while driving.
Braking, cornering, acceleration and physiological performance can be read in the same context, offering teams and professionals elements to explore the possible causes of the variations.
First industrial focus planned, starting from the prototype for drivers.
A possible extension, with its own wearability and activity requirements.
New sporting contexts for the development of personal telemetry.
Expressions of interest open up prospects in football and other disciplines.
Future directions: each discipline requires its own development and verification path.
Teams, federations, partners and investors: we build the industrial path dedicated to sport.
