Seeing the Invisible - Windsight IQ - OnCourse Ep39

What if you could see the wind in such detail that your path to the top mark was simply a matter of threading the best gusts together? The racing world elite can not only do this in their sleep, but they can identify minute changes in the breeze' strength and direction even when their head is inside a helmet and their face shielded by a large visor. At the recent America's Cup in Barcelona most of us were preparing to struggle with seeing what the top teams would spot on the race course that influenced their tactics??But AC37 changed all that. When Emirates Team New Zealand described what they would like spectators to see on the race course, Capgemini set about creating a way to see the invisible, the wind. Their Windsight IQ technology took wind spotting onto another level as it revealed the invisible advantage in a completely new way for the first time. Matt Sheahan finds out how it was done.
