SpeedClock - Video Radar vs RC Timing Usage & Stats

The iPhone speed radar - easy-to-use speed measurement in your pocket, anytime, anywhere! A unique, advanced app designed to easily measure the speed of cars, boats, skaters, skiers, cyclists, animals, models, footballs, tennis serves, etc. The system is based on motion detection, enabling you to track a moving object using a hand-held device alone. SpeedClock includes three separate speed measurement tools and two distance estimation tools.    Speed Radar   SpeedClock uses the camera to detect and analyze motion, and a reference distance to calculate the speed of an object. Define the distance to the object of interest, hold the iPhone still and let the object pass across the the screen. The speed is displayed automatically. SpeedClock is also able to automatically measure the speed and save an image of passing objects. The measurement can be initiated from an Apple Watch and the speed displayed on the watch face.   High Speed Video Recording  An additional speed tool records and processes a video, which enables SpeedClock to track small, fast object, such as flying balls, that can be difficult to catch with regular motion detection.   It also calculates additional parameters like acceleration. Synchronized Timing Gates  A third speed instrument uses two iPhone/iPads equipped with motion detection to start and stop the timer and measure the speed. The distance between the devices is used as reference, and the speed is calculated based on the time taken by the object to travel between the 'Start' and 'Stop' devices. The time is transmitted wirelessly over WiFi or Bluetooth.   Distance Measurement  The stadimeter uses the size of a known object, e.g. a car, to calculate the distance.  The clinometer uses your own height as reference, along with the angle of the iPhone, to estimate the distance to a point on the ground.  The distances obtained from either tool can then be used to calculate the speed.   See a demo video at the application website (www.appmaker.se/speedClock) ON LINE REVIEWS “All I can say is, Fantastic” http://www.madxperts.com/2010/12/03/measure-speed-app-speedclock-iphone-download/ "Wow, how cool is that!" http://www.ithinkdiff.com/turn-iphone-speed-measuring-gun-speedclock-download/ "You really going to like this app" dailyappshow.com/speedclock (video) "A useful utility for anyone needing to measure speed" appmodo.com/44581/ "Useful, easy to use and quite a bit of fun (4 of 5)" appvader.com/2011/03/review-speedclock-iphone/ "speedClock is a useful app when you need to check the speed of yourself, or an object for exercise, racing or simple curiosity (4.5 of 5)" www.cooliphoneipadapps.com/2010/12/speedclock.html "Astonishing" iphonelife.com/blog/5/speedclock-velocity-radar-099-app-lets-you-use-camera-measure-speed-objects "It is a pleasure to use and operate.

RC Timing

This App has been created by an RC Cars and slot cars hobbyist (myself) that had a need: I wanted to know my lap times when practicing in my local club but the expensive Timing System was not installed. So I created RC Timing. RC Timing is an App that tracks lap times for radio-control and slot cars. It can be used in both indoor and outdoor tracks. This App is not intended to replace your club’s timing system. It is thought to help you in situations where you want to practice and the local timing system is not available. It uses the video camera for tracking the car colors and it offers an easy and intuitive configuration. - RadioControl and Slot Racing cars - Manage different drivers/cars/tracks - No human interaction is required - No external systems are required - Training mode/Race mode - Voice synthesizer (you can connect your iOS device to a Bluetooth speaker) - Track up to 10 cars simultaneously - Store all registered lap times - Show basic statistics - Designed to not drain your battery - Both Practice and Race sessions supported - Detailed guide explaining how to use it - Export lap times to CSV - Offers graphs for better performance analysis - Support for car classes - Pitstops
