Gut instinct can only tell you so much about what’s going on with your car while you’re driving. To get a more complete idea of what’s happening, STACK is offering these new Digital Video Loggers (DVLs) that can go anywhere on the car and synchronize with precision onboard datalogging. These products are available in two variations: Clubman-3, with 3-camera capability, and Pro-4 with 4-camera and underwater capabilities (For those of you with amphibious race cars).

Official Release:

STACK’s range of Digital Video Loggers (DVLs) combine the legendary ruggedness, reliability and recording quality of their harsh environment DVR products, validated by years of proven service in heavy industry, defense, and aerospace, with lightweight packaging and crucial datalogging features perfected for the specific challenges of motorsport. Suited for use solely as motorsport digital video recorders, DVLs achieve maximum potential when utilizing their CAN bus interface to connect to existing STACK displays and configurable data systems, or when connected directly to a 3rd party ECU with CAN data stream (such as AEM, Bosch, Mast Motorsports, Motec, etc.). In this capacity DVLs combine multi-camera video recording with precision onboard datalogging to provide perfectly synchronized video and data analysis via PC using the included STACK DataPro software.

Available in two variations, Clubman-3 (3 camera capable, model ST8320) and Pro-4 (4 camera capable, water proof, model ST8321) STACK DVLs for Motorsport incorporate built-in multi-camera processors allowing up to four cameras (depending on model) to be recorded simultaneously with user configured scaling, crop, mirror, flip and positioning of each view in the video frame. The result is the ability to view multiple critical points on the vehicle at once, from driver activity to suspension, drivetrain to bodywork, around vehicle views and more!

In order to optimize the benefits of combined video and data analysis for motorsport performance enhancement, it is crucial that video being viewed is precisely matched with data collected. This ensures accurate comparisons and conclusions rather than dangerous estimations and assumptions which cost your program unnecessary expense and lost positions on track. STACK’s proprietary, continuous and automatic synchronization process guarantees the video frames and data points viewed in the analysis software are an exact match, every time.

Features:

• Video resolution 720×480 @ 30 fps
• Up to 9 hours of highest quality, full resolution recording, depending on CF card size
• Built in 3-axis g sensor for vehicle acceleration analysis and automatic start / stop recording
• Lap to lap sync video comparison feature in DataPro speeds post race analysis allows you to pinpoint trouble areas
