Speed Gauge Overlay Widget
Add a dynamic speedometer to your videos with the GpxOverlay Speed Gauge widget. This versatile widget uses the speed data from your GPX file to create a visual representation of your velocity, perfect for highlighting top speeds, acceleration, or maintaining pace during activities like cycling, motorsports, running, skiing, and more.
Features & Customization:
- Data Display: Choose to display current speed, average speed, or maximum speed achieved during the activity segment.
- Speed Data Source: Use speed from GPS or from a dedicated speed sensor for more accurate readings without random jumps or peaks.
- Visual Styles: Select from various gauge designs (e.g., dial, digital readout, bar graph) to match your video's aesthetic.
- Units: Display speed in kilometers per hour (km/h), miles per hour (mph), or meters per second (m/s).
- Color & Size: Customize the colors, size, and positioning of the gauge on your video frame.
- Synchronization: Accurately sync the speed display with the corresponding moment in your video using GpxOverlay's manual or video-sync tools.
Speed Sensor Support
GpxOverlay automatically detects when your GPX file contains speed sensor data and gives you the option to use it instead of GPS-calculated speed. Speed sensor data is typically more accurate and doesn't have the random jumps or peaks that can occur with GPS data, making your speed overlays look more professional and reliable.
When speed sensor data is detected, you can choose between "Use speed from sensor" or "Calculate from GPS" depending on your preference and data quality.
Use Cases:
- Cycling: Show sprint speeds, cruising pace, or average speed over a climb.
- Motorsports: Highlight top speeds on straights or cornering speeds.
- Skiing/Snowboarding: Visualize how fast you're carving down the slopes.
- Running: Display current or average running speed.
- Drones/Aviation: Show ground speed during flight maneuvers.
The Speed Gauge widget provides a clear and engaging way to showcase a fundamental aspect of many activities. Start customizing your speed overlay today!
