GPS, providing you have some software to do it

Quote from: "spit"Maybe we should arrange a get-together with Firepower Phil - he has a very sexy accelerometer gizmo that can do 0-60. You can also set it for for 50-70 and others etc etc.

Can't remember what the kit is though  s:oops: :oops: s:oops:

Defo!!

Sounds like a great idea, anyone fancy running with this?!

It would be good to link 0-60 times with dyno plots and mod lists etc. Obviously there is the question of different drivers abilities, tyres etc but I think the data would be interesting and useful

all sat nav devices have it, tomtoms, road angels etc. The speed refresh rates on these will vary though.

I have a bluetooth GPS reciever for my phone, and run TomTom Navigator 6 on it.

A bluetooth GPS reciever is about £25 these days I think.

There's probably software for windows mobile or symbian that will do 0-60 times too. (:Me goes and investigates)

only real way to get higher refresh rates is to buy aeronautical gps or go and raid your local MOD base

Here's a high-end all-in kit. £250 + VAT

Wonder if you can get software for Windows Pocket PC to go with a satnav GPS receiver? If anyone finds something, let me know  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

yeah ste i found that.. (ouchy price)

mrdyno in the states is 130 dollars but its an accelatometer so if you move up or down a hill it doesnt read that correctly.

hm, can't find any software. As I'm a programmer in my day job I think I'll just write a crude little program to do it myself. At least I'll know it's as accurate as possible  s:) :) s:)

Will be willing to share it with anyone else interested.

it doesn't but it prints you present speed, so think of it as a more accurate speedo. The downside is that it shows your average speed over a segment of time, and the speed displayed doesn't update every frame (it would be more unfriendly if it did).

I will write some software for use on Windows Mobile devices, I'll only spend a day on it so it won't be mind blowing, but it will do the job.

Sounds good.

I found this - just a basic speedo I think .... but its free, works on PPC / Windows Mobile and may give you some pointers?

yep, any device that can run pocket pc software. I have an O2 XDA IIs as my mobile phone, it will also run on the newer O2 XDAs or Orange Smart Phones. I think TMobile have a suite of handsets that run Windows Mobile now too. Of course there's the whole PDA market too, iPaqs etc are all compatible.

I will create a new topic once it's done. Might get around to it this week or maybe next weekend. I feel quite motivated at the moment but may feel differently in the morning. I have a long list of these little side project apps I want to write but can never be that bothered to!
