Abstract

In Formula Student (FS) / Formula SAE (FSAE) competitions students build single seat formula race-cars with which they compete against teams from all over the world. Despite static disciplines such as cost reports, teams compete in multiple dynamic disciplines driving the car. An important set of rules deals with the necessary prerequisites for a driver to enter a discipline and the maximum amount of runs each registered driver is allowed to drive. So far these rules have not been enforced adequately by most international events. In this paper we present the design and implementation of a prototype system using Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) and Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) technology to document and check compliance with the rules. We share experience gained during a prototype trial during the Formula Student Germany 2013 event.
