Have you ever wondered if the speed of your car was adapted to the weather and road conditions?

• Maybe you could take a turn a little faster?
• Was you playing with skid limits in bad weather?
• Anticipate dangerous situations!
• Do not cross the limits!
• Arrive safely at your destination!

Secure pilot is a great accessory for your car, allowing you to drive safely. Secure pilot shows the behavior of your vehicle on the road and warns you about an impending dangerous situation. Thanks to Secure Pilot, you can get the best from your car door without putting yourself at odds towards security.

Secure Pilot also gives you an indication of the wear rate of your tires: the more the needle is far from the center, the more your tires are going to wear. Keep the needle in the center to save money!

The dial on the left shows the weather settings you have chosen: dry road, rain, snow or ice.

When you click on the icon (in this case, the cloud), you have the posibility to choose a different weather setting.

The main dial shows the lateral acceleration experienced by your car. In other words, the centrifugal force that may cause you to lose traction. Depending on the chosen weather parameter, the graduations on the dial change to match the actual situation.

• The red zone is the critical zone, where your car will lose traction. It is clear that when the needle reaches this zone, the vehicle skids and you may end up in the ditch.
• The white area is a risky area. Depending on the wear of your tires and your suspension or other external factors (such as temperature or condition of the road), your vehicle has can potentially skid.

 

For safety purposes, the dial on the right contains the GPS speed indication. The speed is indicated in km/h or mph, depending on the settings of your iPhone.
 

ON-OFF button toggles the measurement of the risk of skidding. When the detector is switched on, two things happen:

• The automatic calibration. As the position of the iPhone is specific to each vehicle, it is necessary to activate the sensor when the iPhone is in the socket and the vehicle is stationary and flat.
•  The selection of weather parameters. The parameters available are sunny weather, rain, snow and ice.

Satellite button toggles the display of the GPS speed. Remember that communication with GPS satellites and uses more battery may reduce battery life of your iPhone if it is not connected to a power source.
