iHUD
iHUD 2.x new cool features - best unleashed by the power of the iPhone 3GS.
• Augmented Reality with camera combined with iHUD's spatial motion visualization.
• Toggle between GPS and Magnetic compass for stationary and dynamic heading.
• iHUD projection mode to windshield.
• Accelerometer control slider for attitude.
iHUD is an app that turns the iPhone 3G and 3GS into an educational aerospace-inspired mobile Glass Cockpit. iHUD derives its name from Head-Up Display, which depicts motion and guidance information, and data for optimal situational awareness. Imagine this information is provided by iHUD, made possible by the iPhone’s on-board accelerometer and GPS sensor.
iHUD depicts an extraordinary graphic interface with a simulated moving horizon based on the vehicle's acceleration, dynamic moving speed, altitude and vertical velocity ribbons, rotating compass card, slip/skid ball, and separate accelerometer (G-meter).
iHUD is designed to be an iPhone app for education, entertainment, and recreation.
Features (iPhone 3G and 3GS):
• Excellent ‘Glass Cockpit’ colored graphics featuring a navigational multifunction display (MFD.
• Highly accurate and sensitive motion visualization using on-board GPS and accelerometer data.
• Displays graphically: heading, speed, un-accelerated attitude, altitude, vertical speed, slip/skid.
• Displays digitally: heading, speed, altitude, vertical speed, G-load.
• GPS accuracy indicator lights and ± value ranges.
• Weak or no GPS signal generates red colored cross-out of affected visualized data.
• User settings for metric and US standard units.
• User settings for speed ribbon range (multi-color ribbon).
• User setting for compass bug (heading bug) digitally or by moving the heading bug on-screen.
• Sophisticated accelerometer offset calibration
Limitations:
In the current version of iHUD, the horizon is not a reference horizon suitable for aircraft use, it acts like a pictorial inclinometer. An external gyro or future on-board gyro would address this situation.
iHUD 2.0: No GPS data and camera on iPod touch. Magnetic compass only on iPhone 3GS. OS 3.1 required.
Warning:
Never use the iHUD for steering airplanes, helicopters, boats, motorcycles, and other powered vehicles, including UFO's.
