Dynolicious 2 is an application available on the iPhone and iPod Touch that offers an ‘automotive performance meter’. Sounds interesting? Well it is!
From developers BunsenTech LLP, Dynolicious 2 uses the built-in accelerometer of the device to impressively measure various performance metrics of a vehicle. Such as:
- 0-60 acceleration
- 1/4 mile elapsed time
- Lateral Gs
- Horsepower
- Friction circle
Many of you will be skeptical about how accurate this application is using just the accelerometer to produce these results, just like I was. However users claim that the application can measure a vehicle’s speed within 1-3mph!! That’s phenomenal! This application really opens your eyes and shows you what the iPhone can do.
You may recognize Dynolicious from the article in the New York Times in October or from the November ‘08 issue of ‘Car and Driver’.
Dynolicious 2 is available in the iTunes Store now for $12.99 and certainly seems worth the price tag. Many people have given this app a 5-star rating and claim the results are incredible. If you decide to try Dynolicious 2, please let us know what you think.
