aSmart HUD +SpeedCams will indicate where speed cameras are as you drive down the road. I especially liked the heads up display interface of this application. aSmart HUD +SpeedCams is $.99 on the iTunes App Store

aSmartHUD+ is simple and clear vehicle digital dashboard featured by HUD mode and FIXED SPEED CAMERAS DATABASE.

It visualizies your
- current speed
- average speed,
- time,
- heading,
- altitude,
- maximum reached speed (during the current trip or all your trips), maximum altitude and maximum distance to the starting point of your trip.

Also it shows
- color coded distance to the nearest known fixed speed camera;
- it’s speed limit (if known);
- it’s position, relatively to your moving direction, what gives you an idea is the camera in front or behind you;

On approach aSmartHUD+ will give you sound and visual warning. Warning also will be given in case your speed exceeds the speed limit set for that camera.

The database includes an information about 21500 cameras in Europe, 2500 in USA, in 1400 Canada, 1200 in Australia.

NOTE: It’s not guaranteed all speed cameras in your area are included into the database. However, we will release database updates right after the new information will become available.

Tapping the “HUD” icon mirrors all the text, so if you position the iPhone horizontally under your car’s windscreen you can see perfectly readable half-transparent reflection of the picture displayed. We love this mode! We found it much more convenient compared to traditional car dashboards (especially on the roads of Western Europe, which are full of speed cameras and where you need to watch your speedometer all the time). And last but not the least – it just looks cool. 
NOTE: this mode works pretty well at night time and twilight, but on direct sunlight the screen brightness can be insufficient.

- “aSmart HUD+” can keep track on 4 speed limits, giving a warning (sound and visual) each time you crossing it. Normally, it’s legal speed limits within cities, local roads and high-speed motorways. “Never exceed speed” is the speed you should not exceed under any conditions. For example, it can be a technical limit of your vehicle or the point where government can arrest your driving license.

- “Camera” icon on the “compass” circle indicates the position of the nearest camera;
- Speed history log chart is placed on the bottom of the screen.
- Landscape and Portrait screen layouts supported.
- Location Info (longitude and latitude, GPS measurement precision) and some more data is available on separate screen. You can adjust transparency of the “Location Info” screen to use both views at the same time.
- “Records” screen (left upper button on the Location Info screen), where you can see your maximum reached speed (during the current trip or all of your trips), maximum altitude and maximum distance from start.
- Tap the speed indicator to switch into speed fullscreen mode. Cameras info is available there as well;
- In Preferences, you can specify different measurement units (miles per hour, kilometers per hour, knots and meters per second), display color scheme, speed log chart refresh rate and chart style (bars or dots).

Limitations

- The program is running only on GPS-enabled iPhones 3G (second generation or higher) with iPhone OS 2.2 or higher. No iPod Touch, 1st-generation iPhones 2G or minor OS versions supported.

- The precision is affected by the satellite signal quality. On open-sky spaces it’s pretty good, but under other conditions can noticeably decrease. Also, after startup it requires some time to locate the necessary satellites, so during first minutes of running the measurement can be less effective. If unsure, use the program only for reference, don’t rely on it for 100%.

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions about additional functionality, there is a big chance they will be implemented in next version. Please forward your requests or bug reports to requests@atoll-ordenadores.com or share your opinions at http://www.atoll-ordenadores.com/forum/.
