The CycleRecorder Project - Velo-city 2007 Abstract |
---|
The CycleRecorder Project is an open source hardware and software project to develop a system which can be used to record the various aspects of a cyclists journey. The basic system will consist of a number of electronic sensor modules which will be linked together to a central computer processing unit which will record the various inputs. The recorded information can then be played back and analyzed at a later time using the open source application software. The modular design of the system will allow a range of sensor modules to be developed, these modules could include: The system can be used to monitor road surface conditions, cyclist movement through traffic, and how a cyclist reacts to changes in conditions or traffic. The system would be of interest to road traffic engineers and those interested in how road surface or traffic effects a cyclist. The presentation will include an overview of the the systems operation, design and construction, hardware samples, and prerecorded scenarios. |
