Looking to sync this information with the GPS Logger and Video.
Seems like without a OBD I am SOOL Some Kind of Bluetooth gadget would be very cool. Any Ideas? Thanks John |

I built my own from Arduino hardware from Sparkfun.
I can log: innovate LC-1 AFR 2X EGT temps 2X CHT temps Oil pressure Oil temp fuel pressure throttle position Battery voltage Manifold Pressure RPM And it can control a shift light & Alarm light It records data locally to a sdcard at high rate I am working on figuring out how to display the data in real time to a Droid phone like Torque. Even without that feature working, I can still run Torque for the GPS, acceleration, and video. The idea is that the datalogger will have alarm limits on all of the critical stuff (oil press, temp, CHT) and it will be able to blink the alarm light if anything goes out of spec. That way I dont have to ever glance at the phone for status unless the alarm light is blinking. I dont have it installed in the car and working yet. I have bench tested all of the individual functions. I am still testing it and trying to get the software on the Droid to work. |
