Video data logging in any conditions

May 16, 2012 - PRLog -- Racelogic introduce a more durable, waterproof version of their award winning video GPS system
Deciding which motorsport technology to invest in is difficult. You need to know that the system you buy will be reliable and offer consistent results however or wherever you choose to use it. Nowhere is this more important than when logging data to improve both driver and vehicle performance.

Since its launch in 2008, Racelogic’s video enhanced GPS data logger – the award winning Video VBOX – has become essential in-car equipment for pros and enthusiasts alike. But like all electronics, Video VBOX is vulnerable to conditions, with drivers in open top classes opting to place their device in tupperware-like boxes to protect it from the rain.
To give users the peace of mind that their system and data files are protected, Racelogic has developed a ruggedized waterproof version. Housed in a compact anodised aluminium casing with sealed Hirose connectors, Video VBOX Waterproof has an IP66 rating, making it ideal for use in open-top race cars or even power boats. The system has been designed with a base flange and secure mounting holes, allowing the unit to be safely secured.

Video VBOX Waterproof is capable of logging eight CAN channels as standard (32-channel upgrade available), allowing users to measure parameters such as throttle angle, RPM and exhaust temperature.

Racelogic’s managing director Julian Thomas said: “The Video VBOX is now used in many different race series, and increasingly we are seeing it being used in single seater and open type sportscars. Therefore we decided we needed to produce a waterproof version to make it simpler to fit and easier to transfer between different types of cars.”


Available with or without an OLED predictive lap timing display, the Video VBOX Waterproof packages include two bullet cameras, a forward facing camera mount, a 4GB SD card, an unterminated power supply and a flexible magnetic GPS antenna.
