The Innovation Challenge EMEA 2015 is a pilot program for a limited number of teams. The Innovation Challenge might be different every year. Teams enrolled into the Innovation Challenge EMEA 2015 will use a new car kit with 1 motor. The aim of the challenge is to run multiple laps on the Freescale Cup track, the winner is the team that goes the fastest with the least battery consumption. Innovation enrolled teams will participate in the Freescale Cup qualification event as demo cars. A selection of the best Innovation teams might attend the Freescale Cup EMEA Finals. Schedule for the events is listed on The Freescale Cup main page. Pictures of the timer last lap notification: A special power meter has been created at Freescale to measure the battery drain. Information about the smart meter is also attached to this document.
