Valvers Android Dash

Post by Alex DTA »

Has anyone heard of, or tried to use, Valver's Android Dash.

The project can be found here:
https://launchpad.net/valvers-android-dash

Valver appears to be someone called Brian Sidebotham.

I've sent him an email to see if the project is still going, was working, etc.

Don't get your hopes up, this isn't an overnight process. :lol:

I've been in touch with Brian, but I'm also speaking to someone else about a full featured Android app.
It would have a dashboard with customisable gauges, real time logging, logging to a file, and more.

Would there be any interest in this?

This is a small forum, but Ive no doubt whatsoever there would be an interest.

Dash displays are stupid prices, so the ability to use a phone or tablet means you can have an excellent and versatile dash display and at a sensible price.

Cool.
Does anyone know where I can find any documentation on how the data is streamed? I've had a quick look at the documentation on the DTA website, but couldn't see it there.

DTA does give info on the CAN stream, it does not give info on the serial stream
