ROME – Easyrain and Picasso Automotive Creations have signed a partnership that will bring the virtual DAI sensor aboard the new PS-01, the 600 horsepower Swiss supercar all in carbon. The Dai virtual sensor, developed and patented by the Rivoli (TO) factory specialized in the development of advanced anti-aquaplaning safety systems, is integrated on the PS-01, the new super sports car designed by Picasso Automotive, a renowned car maker based in San Vittore. , Canton of Grisons, Switzerland.
Thanks to the Dai virtual sensor, which works through proprietary predictive algorithms and does not require additional physical sensors, it has been possible to develop new safety features based on in-depth analysis of vehicle dynamics parameters. A device aimed, among other things, towards the future that allows data sharing through a dedicated Cloud integrated with the 5G network and the technology of “Smart Cities”. In practice, the virtual sensor instantly warns the driver with different levels of “warning” visible on the vehicle display, thus drawing attention to safety when driving on wet roads and optimizing the speed of the car. The integration of the virtual sensor Dai on board the PS-01, the design of which was started by Stefano Picasso at the beginning of 2020, opens a new scenario in the field of automotive technological innovation, allowing further optimization of performance and driving safety. in case of aquaplaning.
“Our Dai, a predictive virtual sensor capable of making driving on wet asphalt safe, will be installed for the first time on a supercar, the PS-01 – explained Giovanni Blandina, CEO and founder of Easyrain – What better start for our technology integrated in a supercar with a high innovative content and high performance.
We can’t wait to get started, to put the system into action, providing more safety while driving this fantastic supercar ”. “We are really excited that Easyrain has undertaken the development of this system with us – added the founder and CEO of Picasso Automotive, Stefano Picasso – Picasso Automotive wants to be a laboratory for new high-performance technologies, with the aim of maximizing efficiency, optimize weights and achieve extreme performance by focusing on maximum engineering innovation and composite materials. To be able to test the Dai on our first car is really something wonderful ”. The PS-01 supercar prototype made its first appearance on the track last October 4 during the Pirelli P Zero Experience which took place on the famous Austrian F1 circuit Redbull Ring in Spielberg.
