Dash display??
« on: October 14, 2011, 01:16:52 PM »
I was thinking of getting a tablet for tuning and thought why couldnt you guys make a program that puts all the datalog signals as gauges on a screen, so i can use the tablet as a dash dispay? My tach dosent work anyway and I was gonna repace most the other gauges. It would be kinda like the Haltech IQ3 display dash but much cheaper! and be able to log aswell. Megasquirt has sorta the idea, But I dont think link would touch it.

I looked at it for awhile, problem is gauges.

I may end up writing something in openGL at some point, but I wouldn't get your hopes up just yet.

There's a guy on DSMTuners that does all kinds of cool electronic displays.  You might look at what he has, then come up specifically with what you might be interested in and see what he can do.  Here's an example link to one of his announcements on that site:
