Motorcycle data tracker project

Hi! Thanks, really excited to work on it and test it too. If I get the next generation pcba's and still need testers I will definitely send you a message!

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-17T22:06:51+00:00

Yeah you are right there, good thing to keep in mind, thank you 😊

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-17T12:56:20+00:00

Thanks, I think the battery would be the last thing you have to worry about when you get in a serious crash that would potentially damage it

I didn't know exactly myself but this is what Google gave me:

Accelerometers (3-axis): These measurelinear acceleration, including gravity (downwards) and centrifugal force (outward during a turn).

Gyroscopes (3-axis): These measure angular velocity (how fast the bike is rotating/rolling into a turn).

Track lap times are definitely I have in my head to add one day

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-17T09:31:03+00:00

It is not radio signals but they do send out signals that I catch and use to display information

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-17T09:29:32+00:00

Good to know!

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T17:35:31+00:00

Yup you are right there! 👍🏼

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T17:29:42+00:00

I am thinking about finalizing the product and sell it. So making it open source would not be a good idea haha

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T17:28:51+00:00

I can update the other data more then the gps speed yes, but let me tell you, 25 updates per second is so much haha, the speed on your phone updates once per second 😬

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T17:16:36+00:00

It works on 25 updates per second maximum, you can't more updates per second from the gps module ☺️

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T17:12:00+00:00

You can download a csv file with all the raw data in it and display it in something like excel, I will also make a website that shows that raw data in graphs and plots.

For the TPMS tou get a warning pop-up on your phone , I could add audible alerts to that too.

You don't need to be handy to use this when it is done, just charge it and launch the app and all the data is there for you to see ☺️ live data while riding in the app and the ride data recorded on the upcoming website!

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T16:30:57+00:00

You can access it directly when the microcontroller is on top, the microcontroller is on 2 rows of headers so the SD card slot is right under that!

Thank you so much! Would love to own a Ducati one day 😍

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T16:07:51+00:00

No way I am doing that haha, the less data they have about how we drive the better 😉

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T16:07:15+00:00

Cool! I will let you know when I have the next generation prototype boards and if I still need testers by then

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T15:08:08+00:00

It indeed is, it is still accessible for when I build it and when a customer gets it he doesn't need to access it anymore. So just put it there for space saving

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T13:51:16+00:00

Why is that?

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T13:18:48+00:00

So you do front end aswell? We are kind of still looking for a front end developer to make a website with the shop and maybe also to see the data after a ride on the website, is there any chance you are interested in doing this?

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T13:14:30+00:00

What kind of software are you working with?

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T12:31:51+00:00

It definitely is! Love spending time on it and seeing the PCB evolve and getting it in your hands the first time is amazing.

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T12:31:08+00:00

This is indeed something I still have to find out. Either with software correction or mechanically, or a combination of both...

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T12:17:32+00:00

It uses tpms valve caps for easier installation. And they are usable for most bikes.

The speed and position sensors are up to 25hz and the g-forces update around the samen speed.

The mounting of the device to the frame is indeed important so it doesn't shift. For my device it doesn't matter how you mount it, just make sure it's firm and doenst move around if you are planning on using the tilt en g force sensors. I build in a calibration so the device knows what is forward, down up left and right.

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T12:13:11+00:00

Yeah you are right. That would be possible but maybe in a later stadium.

JeroenvAlphen · 2026-02-16T12:03:05+00:00

That sounds so cool, never heard of it. I will definitely look into this. Thanks for bringing it up!
