VeloComputer


Transform your mobile phone into VeloComputer™ - an advanced cycling computer with cadence. All you need is a mobile phone with accelerometer. Strap your phone on a thigh with a sports armband holster or just put it in a pocket of your cycling tights. When the pedal is in its lower position, the phone on your thigh will be located in its low point of "rest". When the same pedal reaches the highest point, your legs make half the rotation in the crankshaft. The phone's accelerometer detects low and high points of "rest" and calculates cadence in rotations per minute (rpm). VeloComputer™ Java™ application works on all phones with built-in accelerometer supporting JSR-256 (mobile sensor). To measure speed and acceleration you will need VeloComputer™ wireless sensor. The sensor attaches to a quick release on a wheel of your bicycle and wirelessly transmits precise motion data to the VeloComputer™ Java™ application on your phone. The application instantly calculates and displays speed, acceleration, time and distance traveled. All your travel data is stored on the phone and can be uploaded to a computer for training analysis. Unlike traditional cycling computer sensors, which measure a full 360° (degree) wheel rotation, our innovative technology is capable of detecting as little as 1° (degree) of wheel rotation. This unique sensing technology is at least 360 times more accurate than traditional sensors. It measures spot speed and acceleration with less than 1 second delay comparing up to 7 seconds in traditional cycling computers. This technology could also measure torque and even power without any additional sensors on your bicycle. VeloComputer™ uses VeloTones™ for audible speed, acceleration and cadence monitoring. VeloTones™, like ringtones, are digital sounds which allow cyclists to monitor speed, acceleration and cadence audibly by hearing without looking at the display. It's like having your personal coach riding with you and telling when to speed up, slow down or change your gear. You can record your own VeloTones™ in your own voice and configure VeloComputer™ to your training needs. Keep your eyes on the road, not your display!
