"Normally, strain gauges would rely on the fact that when you stretch a material, it gets thinner and you change the conductivity of a material to carry a current," said Fanchini.

This would likely include strain gauges to monitor the health of the Titan's carbon fibre hull.

Pressure sensors, accelerometers, strain gauges and other instruments will measure the impact of wind and water on the test structure.

The team is now engaged in a review of all the data gathered during testing - from the roughly 200 air-pressure sensors dotted around the car, plus a multitude of strain gauges, temperature readers and accelerometers.
