Detect Wheel Imbalances with Your Phone
Qnut uses your smartphone's built-in sensors to help identify potential wheel imbalances while you drive.
How Qnut Works
What to expect? →📱
1. Measure Vibrations
Mount your phone securely on a hard surface in your vehicle. The app uses your phone's accelerometer to detect vibrations while driving. Imbalanced wheels create distinctive vibration patterns that vary with speed.
📊
2. Analyze & Visualize
The app processes vibration data and displays it as a spectrogram, showing frequency patterns across different speeds to help identify potential wheel issues.
⚠️
Important Safety Notice
- Never operate Qnut while driving
- Always have a passenger handle the app during measurements
- Securely mount your phone to prevent it from moving
- Drive safely and follow all traffic laws
