The Real Time Remote Garage, a web application utilizing 5G technology, provides drivers with real-time video recordings of their on-track performance and telemetry. This information is accessible to coaches worldwide, enabling remote coaching during driving sessions to offer immediate feedback and suggestions. The Remote Garage aims to elevate the track experience, fostering driver engagement, and improving performance in a user-friendly manner.
The Biometric Data System complements the experience by capturing the driver’s biometric data, including heart rate and stress level. This data facilitates comprehensive performance monitoring, offering valuable insights for refining training approaches.

These two systems synergize with the Digital Co-Pilot, a proactive voice assistant that analyzes both biometric and vehicle data. The Digital Co-Pilot provides real-time feedback to the driver during track sessions, including analysis of lap times, guidance on racing lines, braking points, and insights into the car’s performance on the track. This holistic approach aims to enhance the overall driving experience and contribute to the continuous improvement of the driver’s skills.
In essence, Telemetry X signifies a significant leap in connecting Lamborghini’s racing heritage with cutting-edge technology, promising a future where supercar enthusiasts can enjoy not only the thrill of speed but also a deeply immersive and technologically enriched driving experience on the track.
