AtlasCam turns rides, drives, and outdoor video into rich telemetry stories. Record with a live HUD overlay for speed, altitude, compass heading, coordinates, weather, and real-time maps, so every clip captures not just what you saw, but where you were and how you moved. Ride History & Route Cards Relive past sessions with racing-inspired ride cards that render a glowing vector silhouette of your GPS track, elevation gain, average speed, top speed, duration, and ambient route styling. On iPad and wide displays, AtlasCam adapts into a two-pane experience with an action hub and interactive route browser. 3D & Illustrated Maps Explore routes with artistic 3D architectural map styles and eight visual palettes, including Pastel Illustrated, Vintage Storybook, Antique Parchment, Blueprint Technical, and Cyberpunk Neon. Live GPS fly-to, heading alignment, and mini-map scaling up to 10x help keep your route readable while recording. Onewheel, VESC & Tesla Telemetry Connect supported Onewheel, VESC motor controllers, or Tesla vehicles over Bluetooth and bring live vehicle telemetry directly into your HUD. Capture motor amps, duty cycle, battery levels, speed, tire pressures, and grade alongside your video. Custom HUD Styles Personalize your footage with 11 curated typography options, including Futura Bold, Helvetica Neue, Gill Sans, Baskerville, Avenir Next, Monospace, and more. Choose clean digital readouts or the Rally Arc analog speedometer with dynamic activity scaling. External USB-C Recording Record high-bitrate 4K footage directly to compatible USB-C SSDs and external drives, making AtlasCam ready for multi-hour rides, long drives, and all-day sessions without filling your phone storage. 4K/60 Exports & Social Reels Export full-length telemetry videos with HUD data baked in, or create 15-second animated social reels with rolling counters, route progress, and clean typography built for sharing. Apple Watch & Live Activities Track recording and telemetry from your wrist with the Apple Watch companion app and watch face complications.
