Motorcycle lean angle, speed and G-force on your onboard videos

How far did you really lean in that hairpin? Orbitrace measures it from your camera’s data and shows it live on your video, with your left and right records.

How Orbitrace measures lean angle

Two methods, depending on your data:

  • From the GPS: in a steady turn, lean depends on speed and how tight the turn is. Orbitrace computes it from the trajectory, so it works whatever the camera mount — helmet, chest, tank or tail.
  • From the motion sensors: when the camera is rigidly mounted on the bike, the gyroscope and accelerometer give the roll directly.

Either way, it is an estimate from consumer sensors — great for comparing your rides and sharing, not a calibrated racing data logger.

Gauges built for riders

  • Lean angle with left and right records;
  • Artificial horizon in aircraft style;
  • G-force in g, for braking and acceleration;
  • Speed dial in km/h or mph, map of the road or the track;
  • Highlights: top speed, biggest lean and peak G found automatically — one click to export ±10 s around them.

Track day or mountain road

On the track, put the lean and speed gauges in a corner and the circuit map in the other; export each session’s best lap. On the road, a satellite map that turns with your heading tells the story of a pass better than words. Vertical 9:16 export keeps everything in place for Reels.

Compatible cameras

GoPro with GPS (HERO5 to HERO11, HERO13, MAX), Insta360 X3, X4 and X5, or any camera plus a GPX from your phone or watch.

Questions

Do I need to mount the camera on the bike to get lean angle?

No. The GPS method works with a helmet or chest mount. A rigid mount on the bike also allows the sensor method.

Is the lean angle accurate?

It is a good estimate from consumer GPS and sensors, ideal for comparing rides. It is not a calibrated racing data logger.

Can I show my track map?

Yes, street or satellite, round or square, north-up or following your heading.
