Dashware release

[RandyChase]

What is Dashware?

ChaseCam Dashware is a revolutionary application that lets you visualize your data with professional looking, fully customizable gauges that take your project to a new level. A high-powered software system for your PC, ChaseCam Dashware lets you synchronize data and video to produce a professional presentation in a wide range of formats.

Basically, you can take in any video, and almost any data source, and using premade or customized gauges, you can create a professional looking video with data overlay. Easily create new dials, bar graphs, etc. Control the size, transparency. Share gauges or download the free customer gauges for our site. Automatic track maps from GPS data. Use multiple data files for comparison. In fact, you can read in one person's Traqmate and another person's DL-1. Show multiple positions on a track, so you can compare you against the other guy, or the whole field!

Drag and drop gauges where you want them. Set your map start and stop points. Split segments.

Can do open and closed courses (open like autocrossing!). Simple intuitive. Online help. "How To" wizards.

Video editing also. Trim front and back of video. Add titles. End credits. All with undo and redo.

Create custom templates. Share templates between users. Frequent updates planned with more features.

Output to Youtube or DVD or even upconvert your video.



We intend on releasing this software for sale on or close to Feb 2 or Feb 3, 2009. List price is $195.00. There will eventually be a demo version to download on our site that will have some limitations, including a time limit so that it disables in 15 days. Plus you will not be able to output video files.

Combing video and data can yield far more descriptive results than using either alone.

It is going very well. We should complete beta testing in one week and then release to everyone.

[RandyChase]

We have started beta testing on various systems with various users. We are getting feedback and will be putting in a few bug fixes before we release this for sale. Thanks!

Event of the year..?

[RandallNoll]

Here's an early sample.

[TheGiz]

Is this a rebadged version of trackvision or a new program made by chasecam?

[RandallNoll]

Completely new program. Much more flexibility. Much more customizeable.

While we'll offer templates, consider this a blank canvas that you can use to present your data however you want. Once you create your custom setup you can save it as a template, share it with friends, add/remove components/gauges, etc.
