See Torque at : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torque&hl=en
It has all possible gadgets(digital) that you could possible think of(and available on) for cars. Comes as a free/limited version too : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torquefree
It works with most obd tools, including the cheap eBay ones too. What makes it awesome(to me):
- Bluetooth interface to OBD scanners
- Lot of gauges/graphs
- Lots of logging options - speed/rpm/acceleration etc
- Display of Android sensors along with vehicle sensors - compass/gps/accelerometer/gyroscope
- Overlay of Maps/GPS data
And the most awesome feature/plugin of all - the ability to overlay all the meters/gauges on the video from the Android device's camera and record it too
. This is just like the onboard footage from Motogp, although this is only on the pro version. But I feel it is totally worth it.
Could find only this video from youtube for a sample : [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWIP9YlwI6g]Track recorder - Torque for Android plugin - YouTube[/ame]
Too bad our motorcycles dont have OBD connections like cars. Even without any connection to the motorcycle - the app is still useful for motorcycles since the following data needs no direct connection with a motorcycle:
- Speed - will be sensed using the GPS
- Acceleration/deceleration - using onboard accelerometer
- Pitch/Roll/lean - onboard gyroscope
The only thing missing is RPM - the interface for which I am working on and have got the prototype working with simulated data. It is a matter of together of the RPM counter and the Arduino board I have(soon ).
In any case, I feel this is the most un-intrusive consoles you can install - without any effort and gain lot of info of riding. Even more so during track days. :thumbup:
