VeloAce is the open source bike computer with logging and training capabilities for Palm OS.
VeloAce provides a clear user interface showing the most important data on five different screens. These screens are divided into the Data screen (current, average and maximum velocity, acceleration, trip time, total and trip distance), the Trip screen (total and remaining trip distance and time), the Trainer screen (Top 10 or Last 10 laps, automatic and manual lap trigger) the Log screen (details about the running log, buttons for inserting markers, and a distance vs. velocity graph), and the graphical Speedometer screen (a classical analog representation of the current velocity, including trip and total odometer).
VeloAce can record logs of your trips and allows to beam these logs to friends or to your notebook or PC for further analysis.
Using Palm PDA hardware has several great advantages:
- VeloAce runs on hardware that is nowadays considered obsolete and which is therefore very inexpensive to get
- It uses a large, crisp dot matrix touchscreen with even backlight capabilty
· detailed trip data logging (Perl scripts for conversion to CSV are included)
· scrolling graph with distance vs. velocity (recent 158 wheel revolutions)
· detailed data display: current, average and maximum velocity (km/h, mph), acceleration (g), trip time (h:m:s), total and trip distance (km, miles)
· training capabilities with Top 10 or Last 10 laps and manual and/or automatic lap triggers
· detailed trip data: total trip distance (given by user), completed trip distance, remaining trip distance, total trip time (estimated), completed trip time, remaining trip time (estimated), trip progress bar and percentage
· classical speedometer view with analog display, total and trip odometers
