SoundOfMotion(TM) Bluetooth Sensor
Phone with accelerometer mounted on a thigh to measure cadence


Sign Up and download VeloComputer TM application to your mobile device.

Transform your mobile phone into VeloComputerTM - 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 with an extension for your leg or just put it in a pocket of your cycling tights. The built in accelerometer measures your cadence. No more sensors on your crankshaft. Keep your bike clean! Click on the video above for a demo.

GPS enabled phones allow VeloComputerTM to calculate your speed, distance, acceleration and also track your trip data. All your trip data is stored on the phone in a CSV files and can be uploaded to a computer for training analysis or Google Earth for tracking.

 

The wheel sensor

SoundOfMotion Bluetooth Sensor
SoundOfMotion(TM) Bluetooth Sensor
The sensor
on a quick release

To measure precise speed and acceleration you will need VeloComputerTM wireless sensor. The sensor attaches to a quick release on a wheel of your bicycle and wirelessly transmits precise motion data to the VeloComputerTM JavaTM application on your phone. The application instantly calculates and displays speed, acceleration, time and distance traveled.

Unlike traditional cycling computer sensors, which measure a full 360° (degree) wheel rotation, our innovative technology is capable of detecting as little as (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.

VeloTones™

VeloComputerTM uses VeloTonesTM for audible speed, acceleration and cadence monitoring. VeloTonesTM, 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 VeloTonesTM in your own voice and configure VeloComputerTM to your training needs.

Keep your eyes on the road, not your display!

Check out Simulator for a demo and compose your own VeloTonesTM.

SDK for Developers


The Software Development Kit (SDK) enables developers to create applications using the advantages of the (degree) precision motion sensing technology. Any device with bluetooth such as mobile phone, PDA or a computer would be able to acquire an accurate motion data from the VeloComputer™ sensor mounted on a wheel.
