VibeTrace: Vibration Diagnostic Tool
VibeTrace enables car owners to diagnose intermittent high-speed vibrations by capturing and analyzing vibration data using smartphone sensors. It guides users through systematic on-road tests to pinpoint issues like tire imbalance, internal damage, or suspension wear, reducing guesswork and unnecessary shop visits. Features include real-time vibration logging, frequency analysis, and a recommendation engine for next steps.
Key Features
- Smartphone accelerometer-based vibration recording and analysis
- Step-by-step guided road tests at specific speeds
- Vibration frequency and amplitude matching to known component issues
- Diagnostic report with actionable recommendations
Target Users: Car owners experiencing unexplained high-speed vibrations, especially those with intermittent or code-free issues.
Revenue Model: Freemium: basic diagnostics free, advanced analysis and reports via one-time purchase or annual subscription.
