dash

Smartphones are extensions of ourselves ? we use them for organizing, planning and shopping, so why not driving? Dash, a low-energy Bluetooth device, works with your smartphone and car to analyze your trips using the engine computer.

Plug Dash into your car and sync it with any iOS device to monitor your driving. The free app creates a new profile for every car you plug the device into, and automatically sends data to the company?s website so you can track trends and costs. Check out the video, above, for more.

While there are other devices that operate as driving assistants, Dash improves your driving during your trip as opposed to after. The aim is to make the app a seamless part of your dashboard by creating customizable displays such as fuel usage and mileage.

Gauges and charts update in real-time, and users can receive alerts when the car isn?t operating as smoothly as it should. The online database lets you compare your information with others for money-saving tips and driving advice. Using DashCam, you can also record a video of your trip with overlaid engine details by mounting your smartphone onto the dashboard or windshield.
