I try to pay attention to techie type threads.
Been testing this new camera with 3 axis accelerometers and GPS
for speed. It weighs 23 grams and slightly longer that a pack of
100's. But it shows speed and forces generated as a overlay on
video. Been testing it on cars and the video and data is great,
can not wait to test it when ski racing. The one problem with
camera lens and high humidity days.

I am very curious as to the G forces generated in a turn when
skiing, very interested in determining how accurate it is. As we
do not mount accelerometers loosely it is in a fixed position
mounted 90 degrees to the linear one. Speed should be some what
accurate.

The camera looks brilliant, exactly what I want, then I eventually
found a price perhaps I'll wait a bit.

Yes
It is a steep one.
They just released it I think there is less than a hundred in the
states, they are selling them in europe but there doing a bunch of
upgrades on firmware.

But a chase cam with modules to do same thing is about 800 american
so this is not that much more expensive.

I am waiting for the CAN bus interface that will let me overlay data
from my bmw it plugs into diagnostic connector and pulls out data
like rpm and throttle position- Hide quoted text -

Hey! Isn't this where "jeff davis" jumps in and makes some kind of
rediculous assertion?

Wouldn't know, I got bored with him too
