Engage Mobile Solutions and Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing have teamed up to bring fans inside the helmets of the RLL Racing Team at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Using multiple pairs of Google Glass, the firm captured a practice session and pit stop featuring Graham Rahal, Bobby Rahal and the pit crew of the RLL Racing Team. Sports fans and technology lovers alike will want to catch a glimpse of the ground-breaking video.
If you think this can only be found overseas, fret now, our own local gymkhana and rally driver has done the same during BMW’s MINI stunt driving event. This was filmed during the opening act for Big Jim for the BMW Motorrad Day 2014, the largest Motorrad event ever held in Putrajaya. Catch the action through the eyes of Ivan Khong as he drives the MINI in a series of stunts in the video below.
I mean, how cool is it to actually get the same view as the driver and you get to experience all of the action behind the wheel. With the emergence of technology such as Google Glass, I am sure we can get a better close up views and who knows, these views during races, events may end up as part of the standard TV coverage.
