PDA Lap Timer

Post by Camotec »

Hey Guys,

I just bought a program for my Pocket PC called SPB Time. (for $10)
It works as a semi-auto lap timer, your PDA can then be mounted in the car (still trying to work out how) and then when the start point is passed again the screen can be tapped causing the timer to record that lap time and start counting again from the tap. all lap times can be outsourced into a document and can be graphed etc.

This may seem pointless but due to PDA's having alot of accesories like external keyboards etc. I reckon I could rig up a steering wheel mounted button to push as i pass the start point.

Anyways I will keep you posted.

Cheers
Ben

Connect an IR receiver somehow and you're in business.

Hmm Yeah I reckon I could manage that, jaycar or dse would have somthing surely. then I rig it to a letter on the palm keyboard and bind the letter to the lap button and she would be sweet, I am picking up a ipaq mobility kit which include such a keyboard and car charger for $20
