In the Pole Position
Car dashboards can be tricky. A difference on the display or a light that turns on out of nowhere and you start wondering whether you are aware of what goes behind the panels and, most importantly, if you are really getting the most of that powerful engine you've got.
Then comes Carman. The ultimate customizable and open source application for monitoring live data and checking the performance of your best mate car. It uses a striking and intuitive interface which is connected to the car's information by Bluetooth.
