Supercars\u2019 Driving Standards Advisor Craig Baird has a new tool at his disposal to monitor pit-to-car radio communications.<\/p>\n

First trialled last time out at the Sandown 500, an Artificial Intelligence-powered app is being used to record, transcribe and store radio messages.<\/p>\n

The app is the work of communications engineer Johno Harries, whose diverse experience includes a stint working on Supercars broadcasts through partner Gravity Media.<\/p>\n

It has been developed primarily to improve the use of radio communications in TV broadcasts, likely starting next year.<\/p>\n

For now, though, Baird said it allows him to use radio messages in any recommendations made to stewards during races.<\/p>\n

The \u2018banter\u2019 that triggered $444,000 WhatsApp fine warning<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cI already scan the radios, but I wouldn\u2019t have access to recordings until post-race,\u201d Baird told Speedcafe.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis app records all the communications and spits it out verbatim in front of me. I can also go back and select any of them and either hear it or print out what they said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf something happens and I go back and push a time stamp or a lap, I want lap 23 and I want that car, that car and that car, that\u2019s everything that was said on lap 23 by all those people.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt allows me to use the radio messages in my recommendations to the stewards, where otherwise I\u2019d say I\u2019d heard it, but I didn\u2019t have access to it until post-race.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I\u2019d missed it or if stewards wanted proof that it was said, I couldn\u2019t do that until after the race either.\u201d<\/p>\n

The technology will likely be rolled out in the Supercars broadcasts next year amid a significant shake-up of the technical side of the TV production.<\/p>\n

An overhaul of various technical elements of the coverage is expected amid Supercars\u2019 impending move from Gravity to NEP as its production partner.<\/p>\n
