iPhone Dyno?

Post by Luigi »

Someone at the NCM-HOF recently mentioned this application on the iPhone.

Being a bit skeptical, I wonder how accurate this is?

Anything is possible :haha

I think it is relating to the GPS location.

as a fact I think the Skidpad in HUD from Corvette works the same way.

Jer,

There is actually an accelerometer in the phone which causes the screen to change aspect as the phone is turned. The software works off that piece of hardware.

Doing a little research last night showed a bit of disparity in the results people were getting as compared to Gtech's.

However for $13 what a bunch of fun to have with a phone.
