Racing Force International has signed a multi-year agreement with the Australian Supercars Championship for the introduction of the Driver’s Eye micro camera system. The camera measures 9 x 9mm and weighs 1.43g.

Alexandros Miotto Haristos, COO of Racing Force Group, commented, “The Repco Supercars Championship is yet another top motorsport series to adopt the Driver’s Eye technology to enrich the show with its spectacular immersive experience.”

David Tunnicliffe, Supercars head of broadcast, added, “The camera will be positioned at eye level on the protective padding on the inside lining of the helmet, transmitting live footage from behind the visor directly to television screens. Driver’s Eye adds a unique dimension to the viewing experience and the innovative camera technology immerses fans in wheel-to-wheel racing.”
