TandemGPS, the first GPS-based speedometer app, provides real-time speed data using integrated Light-Spectrum Signaling (LSS). Designed as a safety tool for all drivers, TandemGPS offers a safe and non-intrusive alternative to traditional numeric readouts. TandemGPS sends speeds as user-defined light signals from  devices. When used in combination with Motorcyclists’ skill-based customizations, TandemGPS’ unique interface tools address a fundamental safety challenge: maintaining safe eye-contact with the road. By providing customizable navigation conditions in a user-influenced app environment, TandemGPS empowers users to tailor their riding experience to their skill level, driving environment, weather conditions, and commutes. Each ride is saved with a unique filename and can be managed through the in-app Rides Manager. TandemGPS also allows users to create location-based rides using its link interface. This digital connection establishes a speedometer-based ride with a mapped location. This feature is particularly useful for Motorcyclists who travel in groups and want to share user-created navigation options to guide their trip. By integrating TandemGPS’ LSS signaling with user-specific monitoring and alerts, the potential safety advantages of this technology are further enhanced through continued use. TandemGPS offers: • Group Management for Member-to-Member connectivity • Ride Management for saved, user-defined Tandem Speedometers and Map files • A Member-to-Member Communication Service that allows them to share saved Speedometers and Map files • A Biker-influenced Navigation Environment with three independent Map styles • A state-of-the-art signaling technology that provides dash-less speed data through any mobile device. • An App with minimal user-prompts, physical screen engagements, and reduced eye-to-screen demands . • User-defined Speedometers and Maps are saved as Rides and, such, allow custom speedometers to be digitally linked to specific geographical locations with start and stop points. • Maps include toggles to control APIs on the fly. One-touch On and one-touch Off of: • 3-D Map View • Voice Navigation • Traffic • Screen Navigation • Map Screen toggles switch saved speedometers and tracking modes with one click. • “Always On” Top Speed displays every time you stop, on all three Map screens.
