GPS-aware OBD insights and anomaly detection

CanoramIQ logs every drive—from ignition on to off—over Bluetooth. We pair OBD data with timestamps and GPS, then use Isolation Forest to flag outliers and generate KPIs so you can monitor engine health, fuel economy, and driver performance on a map.

How did this drive score?

CanoramIQ breaks every drive into key health areas. Each score runs from 0 to 100 — the higher the better. Scores are compared against a large reference dataset so you always know where you stand.

What your vehicle is telling you

Slow to reach full power

During hard acceleration the engine was noticeably slow to build full power, and in some cases overshot the target. This is something a mechanic can investigate — it often comes down to a boost sensor or a small solenoid that controls how quickly power ramps up.

Fuel mix needs a tune-up

The engine was running slightly richer than optimal — meaning it was using a touch more fuel than necessary. This is a known sign of a sensor that may be ageing or injectors that need a clean. Left unchecked it can affect fuel economy and emissions.

Electrical system — rock solid

The battery and alternator performed flawlessly throughout the entire drive. Voltage stayed steady the whole time with no dips or spikes detected. Your charging system is in excellent health — no action needed.

Engine knock — nothing to worry about

A small number of knock events were detected but the engine managed them automatically and safely each time. This is normal behaviour for a performance engine under load. No signs of any harmful or sustained knock — you're good to go.

Engine running rough — worth checking

Engine speed was more erratic than expected during this drive. This kind of pattern can point to a cylinder not firing cleanly, a worn spark plug, or a minor fuelling issue. CanoramIQ flagged it automatically — a quick workshop check is recommended.

Pedal response — spot on

Every time the driver pressed the accelerator, the engine responded instantly and precisely. There was no delay or lag between intention and power delivery. This is a great sign that the throttle and engine management system are working in perfect harmony.

Phone Sensors

IMU sensor fusion

Your phone's built-in accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer aren't just for screen rotation. CanoramIQ fuses IMU data with OBD telemetry and GPS to unlock KPIs that the CAN bus alone can't provide — no extra hardware required.

What sensor fusion unlocks

By combining phone IMU with OBD and GPS, CanoramIQ calculates KPIs that no single data source can provide on its own.

Driver behaviour score

Fuses braking G-force, cornering load, throttle jerk, and speed context into a single 0–100 score that adapts to road type and conditions.

Suspension health index

Vertical acceleration spectra reveal worn dampers, broken springs, or tyre pressure imbalances — even before the driver feels it.

Real-time motion state

Determines whether the vehicle is accelerating, cruising, braking, cornering, or idling — used to contextualize every OBD signal.

Road quality mapping

GPS-tagged vibration intensity creates a heatmap of road roughness along your routes — useful for fleet route planning and vehicle wear estimation.

Anomaly cross-validation

When Isolation Forest flags an OBD outlier, IMU data confirms whether it correlates with a physical event (pothole, hard brake) or a true sensor fault.

Fuel waste attribution

Combines throttle position, speed, and lateral G to attribute excess fuel consumption to specific causes: harsh braking, aggressive cornering, or poor route choice.

No extra hardware. Every modern smartphone already has an IMU. CanoramIQ activates it automatically during each drive session and processes all sensor data on-device for privacy.

Frequently asked

Which OBD-II adapters are supported?

Bluetooth ELM327-compatible adapters with stable sampling rates. We'll publish a tested list for iOS and Android during beta.

How do you detect outliers?

We train an Isolation Forest model on a large reference dataset and adapt it with your vehicle’s statistics to flag unusual points and segments.

Where is my data stored?

On-device by default. CSV exports are under your control. Optional cloud sync will be opt-in.

Do you support diesel and hybrids?

Yes, but available PIDs vary by make/model. During beta we’ll focus on the most common signals and expand coverage.

How does IMU sensor fusion work?

Your phone's accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer run alongside OBD logging. CanoramIQ time-aligns all streams and uses sensor fusion algorithms to compute KPIs like braking intensity, cornering force, and road quality — entirely on-device.

Does IMU data drain my battery?

Minimal impact. The IMU sensors are low-power hardware that modern phones keep active anyway. CanoramIQ samples at a tuned rate balanced for accuracy and efficiency.
