VISION:
Carbin is going to be the first smart GPS navigation app with a heartbeat monitor for BOTH the road and
your vehicle.
Data collected over time will help us add 3 driving options to Carbin’s navigation:
(1) CHEAPEST route -> minimizing your cost of fuel consumption-based quality of roads and traffic,
tolls and any possible damage to your vehicle’s suspension due to quality of roads.
(2) LUXURIOUS route -> maximizing the quality of your ride with the best quality roads with minimal
traffic.
(3) ENVIRONMENTAL route -> minimizing emission levels with lowest fuel consumption.
ABOUT the app:
Carbin is in development stage and over the course of next several months the app is going to undergo
many design changes, which will provide you with valuable feedback throughout and after the trip. Carbin will be able to monitor your vehicle’s suspension in real-time -> how your vehicle responds to different road conditions and if any of the suspension parts need replacement. It will also tell you if there is anything wrong with your tires.
For now, however, Carbin needs your help in acquiring a large network of data in order to deploy its machine learning algorithms to derive information needed to achieve 3 new driving options and to be able to monitor the performance of your vehicle’s suspension, for safety and to save you money on repairs.
In addition, with derived values Carbin is building a road quality and CO2 saving potential maps for the entire world. For more information on this global initiative, please visit https://fixmyroad.us (for now website
is optimized only for desktop viewing).

HOW it works:
Use it as any other GPS navigation app. Search for place and then click “DRIVE”. Or if you want to record
data without navigating click “RECORD”. Please remember that data is only recorded when you drive.
Your data is most accurate when your phone is in a fixed position: it could be a phone holder, cup holder,
dashboard compartment, your car’s floor etc.
DATA collected:
Data is ONLY shared when you press “Record”, or you start navigating. Files that you share can be easily
viewed by exporting them from the “Downloads” section. Information shared include ONLY: GPS position
and X, Y, Z, accelerations. Carbin requires no personal information to use the app and data shared is fully
anonymous.
