Mesure programs - Car racing. :)

[jlw]

I just downloaded a great program that record data and gives me 0-100 times (0-60 mile/h ??) and lot of other stuff. But the program cant analyse the code and give me the info in the pocket pc. I need the oakgps to anylyse it. I want to know if there any similar program as the one i found WITH a analyser. Would be great to have.

But http://www.ake.nu/oakgps/index_eng.html works just fine. Or have not tryd it yet. But my friends have.

Hope someone can helt me!

regards

We had this topic already a while back. You need to be aware that the standard GPS sampling rate is 1Hz, so you will have a tough time (sic) to measure time in the sub-second range as well as the distance you travel within one second. Obviouly this is especially bad with race machines.

My friend explaind a good method of timing 0-60 and 402 mters and 402 meters etc.

Download this program
ftp://gps:gps@81.228.189.128:8282/GPS/NMEAMon.exe

It's my ftp its not up forever.

And then download

OakGPS calculator:
http://www.ake.nu/oakgps/OakGPS.zip

(noy my server)

And then start the oakcalc via this command line:

"OakCalc -inputfile C:\GPS\Test2.txt -startcorrection -speedtarget 100 -distancetarget 201 -zerolimit 1"

It's a bit tricky.

After that the program have generated a few files. And the program gives you info like this

Acceleration Run 1
Speed: 0-100 km/h in 7.91 seconds at 130.12 meters.
Distance: 0-201 m : 10.23 @ 113.37 km/h.


Pretty cool i think.

The NMEA comes in at 1 second intervials, most GPS's report a rolling averge anyway. between the two you will get a more accurate 0-60 with a stop watch and a passenger watching you speedo.

Next time you go for a drive, pull an emergency stop from 60 down to 0, and once stopped, see how long you GPS takes to report 0mph.

GPS can provide incredibly accurate timeing figures, as the clock on it is from atomic clocks, but you will need two specialist devices, one at each end, and a sensor to tell it when to start and stop. Not something your average consumer GPS is capable of doing.
