Partnership with Xsens

21 Oct 2026

The battery acts as the power source, the cables as data buses – a racing car is a sophisticated system that requires precise measuring equipment to operate optimally.

This role is fulfilled by inertial sensors. They constantly monitor every movement of the vehicle, transmitting data to monitoring and warning systems. This year, Xsens has equipped us with top-of-the-range Xsens MTI-680G units. 💯

It is these inertial sensors that give us full control over the vehicle’s dynamics in real time. The sensors from Xsens allow us to determine the physical state of the car in a fraction of a second. Thanks to this, the vehicle control algorithms are constantly updated, and the data we collect from them allows us to further refine our design. 🏎️

Thanks to our collaboration with Xsens, we are able to take every corner with precision and ensure that our car moves with the utmost precision along every centimetre of the track. 🤝

Each season, we create a new Formula Student racing car. We have twelve unique combustion engine models to our credit, each one easily outperforming the previous one. In 2022, the team's first ever electric car with autonomous driving systems was built – the RT12e. We are currently working on our seventeenth design, including the fifth of its kind – the RT16e.
