Certified Hardware
DMD2 certified hardware is a free certification for manufacturers.
For the user it means that for each new feature that we develop, we will always manually test it for compatibility with the hardware
From the device manufacturer we ask for the same, for each device firmware or app update the manufacturer needs to allow us to test it first before release.
We also have minimal requirements to make sure the device matches the specific needs for our app focus: motorcycle navigation (available at the bottom of this page).
The hardware can be an Android device, an handlebar controller, OBD dongle, external GPS systems, etc.
Although the DMD2 team does not manufacture hardware we are working closely with manufacturers to give as much input as possible, making sure the device performs perfectly on your motorcycle and is 100% compatible with all the DMD2 features.
Although all links currently point to our Thork Racing shop there is NO requirement that we have to sell it. We are just trying to create a solution to make everyone happy. We believe that with a list of certified devices our users get an answer to a common question “What is the best X product to use with DMD2?“, we are able to test DMD2 in more hardware to increase compatibility, and the manufacturers that can do resell prices get a platform that helps them sell more, while we, by selling the products, get a source of income to finance the development of DMD2. Win-Win.
