VBOX is the industry standard for measuring vehicle speed and location. Based on a series of high-performance GPS satellite signal receivers, the VBOX system can measure speed, distance, acceleration, braking distance, position, heading angle, slip angle, lap time, corner force and other parameters with high precision. The VBOX mainframe can be combined with a range of input and output modules, making it a powerful and flexible data acquisition system. Because it has the function of synchronizing GPS and video, CAN bus and IMU data, the VBOX system is the best choices for testing departments of world's automobile and tire manufacturer.
