7. Vehicle Accelerometer & Slope Meter
7.1. Vehicle Accelerometer (G-Value Table)
The built-in accelerometer provides G-value readings, which are essential for performance monitoring:
- Acceleration G-value: Indicates the force during acceleration.
- Braking G-value: Shows the force during braking.
- Left Turn G-value: Measures lateral force during left turns.
- Right Turn G-value: Measures lateral force during right turns.
A larger G-value signifies stronger acceleration/deceleration performance and better cornering control.

7.2. Electronic Slope Meter (G-Sensor)
The P3 HUD features a 6-axis G-sensor (3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer) to provide real-time information on your vehicle's body posture. This is particularly useful for off-road driving to ensure safety by monitoring:
- Uphill slope
- Downhill slope
- Tilt left
- Tilt right
