RaceView is a real time monitoring system designed to allow race teams of all levels to have access to vital data during race events. RaceView has been designed to be as affordable as possible without skimping on the features. Using just a Android based cell phone and a regular PC users will be able to monitor their vehicles in real time viewing the current position on course, the last lap line as well as the current one. Lap time since the race started, speed and accelerometer data. With the addition of our optional Bluetooth module you can monitor engine vitals like oil pressure, battery voltage, RPM and many others plus things like brake position and steering wheel angle.
This project is in a very early stage and is primarily being tested by members of the Dirty Drifters and select others around the world. As the project progresses it will be opened up to more people. We ask that all that participate in the Alpha testing of the project report issues, comments questions and suggestions so that we can improve on our final product. Details such as pricing are not availible and will not be until closer to release date. People that help to test will be compensated with a free version of all the software needed as a thank you for their services. Below is a list of current and planned features.
Current Features
- Real time position reporting drawn on user designable map (such as using maps from google or bing)
