Why settle for dull, outdated analog meters? NinjaHonda converts any standard Android phone or tablet into a razor-sharp, ultra-responsive digital dashboard with real-time speed, dynamic RPM sweeps, gear positions, and sensor telemetry.
See the authentic screen recording from our Flutter prototype showcasing quadratic bezier path animations and real-time responsiveness.
Every component has been custom-painted using Flutter's high-performance 2D canvas primitives for zero-latency feedback.
Custom Bézier-curved slot with segmented vertical ticks and redline warnings. Designed to mirror premium race bike instrumentation.
Direct socket stream connection to onboard ESP32/microcontroller. Continuous background reconnection ensures uncompromised uptime.
Instant digital gear tracking (Neutral through 6th gear). Instant feedback calculated from engine pulse and wheel velocity ratios.
Adaptive vertical curve indicator fitted seamlessly to the cluster's aerodynamic outline with reserve alert styling.
Continuous temperature monitoring keeps you informed of coolant and engine block health during intense traffic or spirited runs.
Locks device to landscape mode, suppresses notification shades, and maximises contrast for crystal-clear readability under bright sunlight.
NinjaHonda connects physical motorcycle sensors with high-level graphics using an ultra-lightweight telemetry protocol.
Sensors (RPM pickup coil, wheel hall effect sensor, fuel float) feed into an ESP32 / Arduino controller.
Data is framed into a tight 22-byte character stream formatted for maximum throughput and minimum latency.
ESP32 broadcasts the data stream locally over Wi-Fi / Bluetooth to the mounted Android client.
Flutter BLoC architecture unpacks packet tokens and drives 60+ FPS CustomPainter canvas re-draws.
As implemented in main_data_provider.dart:
No cloud accounts, zero data subscriptions, and no external internet required. Direct peer-to-peer telemetry right on your handlebars.
