Yeah I have been making some progress on the module but will only probably begin testing end of this month once we have the Kart up and running. I will commit the latest code once I have started testing which should be of some help

#56695 Netduino Plus 2 GPS Laptimer

Thanx about the suit!
Well I know there will be some precision issues at first but I am hoping to get accurate to about 0.1s at the end. With the limited refresh intervals I am sure it won't be able to get any better than that. Hopefully with some clever math it can be solved. Now it is just learning it and testing.
But is that the allure of these projects? Building projects to make the improbable probable...
In the end I want to incorporate a GSM module as well to provide live updates to the pit crew so they can monitor the karts and driver performance and hopefully result in a better setup.

I am looking forward to trying this! Thanks
#56669 GPS Help
Posted by jwvolschenk on 06 March 2014 - 10:09 AM in General Discussion
Hi,
I want to be able to determine if my current gps has crossed over a specified coordinate line.
I was wondering if there are any GPS libraries that help in the sense of detecting intersection coordinates? Also if there are any best practices involved in these scenarios?
#56668 Netduino Plus 2 GPS Laptimer

Hi,
I am fairly new to the Netduino community, but after browsing and learning from the more experienced people I thought I would attempt a project of my own.
I want to create a Lap and Sector timer for my karting endeavors. There are existing systems that can do this but I wanted to create my own. Besides the updates of your sector times I want to add any other external measurements like throttle postition, brake position, G forces, engine temperature etc which will greatly enhance the experience.
So after doing some research I decided upon the Adafruit Ultimate GPS shield to be my GPS receiver of choice. So first steps were to just get GPS signal and later on determine sectors and intersections of coordinates.
It is still a work in progress project. Hopefully get some decent testing this weekend and data to continue this development.
Just like to thank the Netduino team for all their great work in giving us a powerfull framework to work with. As well as the developers of NETMF Toolbox. This library is such a great tool and help!
Any suggestions or criticism is welcome. Follow the project on Codeplex
Update (2014-03-12): Tested the GPS point calculation to a predefined sector and it worked.
