The AMS Unit

The AMS Unit consists of 8 high-intensity RGB LEDs, a 4-button keypad, a leading-edge sensor suite, a dual-diversity radio module, an internal battery, a GPS receiver, and a micro USB port. All housed in a machined aluminium case for durability.

The AMS unit transmits radio messages to race control and other competition and support vehicles, allowing safety information to be processed in real-time. As well as reporting to race control , the AMS unit creates internal logs of second-by-second data including, time, location, speed, bearing, g-forces, safety status, communication logs and more. `these logs are recoverable via USB for accident analysis, penalty judgement and investigative purposes.
