Title: improved/networked bike computer for trainer
Post by: postuma on February 05, 2016, 03:47:38 pm

I'm thinking the Oak would be perfect for an improved port of my already-working-well bike computer (http://digistump.com/board/index.php/topic,1938.0.html):

• battery monitor: because you hate to lose a workout when your battery dies
• user input via touchscreen or keypad
• allow user to select a trainer from list stored in code, or accept user-entered trainer variables
• allow user to specify units: SI vs imperial
• allow user to view history
• allow user to pause/resume workout
• allow user to save workout
• compare workout stats to previous workouts
• manual input of history summary from other bike computers
• splash screen
• store pauses, pause duration
• record ambient temp
• store workout details on SD card: fine-grained data saved at pre-determined intervals
• viewing/graphic workout data on web-based interface, or portable devices (using Blynk??)
• upload workout data to fitness tracker apps, i.e. Runtastic

and whatever else I haven't thought of yet. Thoughts?

Sounds awesome! Especially combined with a weather-proof casing. I'd enjoy helping out sometimes, but it won't be very often (having a startup company has it's perks, but spare time definitely aint one of them!).
