Rife is also displaying a three-axis accelerometer with the aforementioned noise filters and conditioned outputs, with a straight 0-5v output. According to Cotteleer, he 3.5G sensors currently available is good for a .96 60-foot time, thereby covering most enthusiast’s racecars. A 5G accelerometer will be coming early this year.
Along that same line, a true zero-speed wheel-speed sensor is also in the lineup, applicable for brake and driveshaft sensors.

“We took a look across the sensor market and tried to add value where we could,” Cotteleer shares. “Those places where we felt like we couldn’t, we chose to let the market stand the way it is. We have a product road for 2020 that includes a laser ride-height and track-temperature sensor that also integrates shock sensors — basically, a full under-car system that all comes out in one cable and runs up the ECU to provide ride-height and shock data.”
We’ll have a more in-depth look at Rife’s complete lineup of sensors and the technology behind them in an upcoming story, so keep an eye out!
