|  2. Physical Validation: PENDING. Real physical dynamics, engine vibration, cellular handover,   |
|     and thermal throttling require mounting the device to a motorcycle for a 30-60 min test.   |

## 2. Forensic Event Architecture & Taxonomy

The forensic system captures 40 standard event categories across critical system boundaries without blocking the real-time 20Hz telemetry loop:

```mermaid
flowchart TD
    A[Hardware Sensors\nGPS / IMU / Compass] --> B[TelemetryService 20Hz]
    B --> C[TelemetryValidator]
    C -->|Validated Sample + QualityScore| D[FieldTestLogger]
    D -->|State Machine Analysis| E{Threshold Cross / State Change?}
    E -->|Yes| F[Bounded Prioritized Queue\nCap: 1000 Events]
    E -->|Duplicate State| G[Accumulate Max Excursions]
    F -->|Flush Every 3s| H[(SQLite Database\nfield_test_events)]
    F -->|Live Stream| I[In-Memory Circular Buffer\n500 Events -> UI Timeline]
```

### Forensic Event Categorization (36 Enum Types)
1. **Lifecycle & Session**: `RIDE_STARTED`, `RIDE_STOPPED`, `APP_PAUSED`, `APP_RESUMED`, `FOREGROUND_SERVICE_STARTED`, `FOREGROUND_SERVICE_STOPPED`
2. **GPS Pipeline**: `GPS_STALE`, `GPS_RECOVERED`, `GPS_JUMP_REJECTED`, `GPS_ACCURACY_DEGRADED`, `GPS_INITIALIZED`, `GPS_ERROR`
3. **IMU & Motion Pipeline**: `IMU_SATURATION`, `IMU_RECOVERED`, `SENSOR_INITIALIZED`, `SENSOR_ERROR`, `CALIBRATION_STARTED`, `CALIBRATION_COMPLETED`
4. **Telemetry Heartbeat**: `TELEMETRY_GAP`, `TELEMETRY_RECOVERED`, `TIMESTAMP_ERROR`, `SAMPLE_ACCEPTED`, `SAMPLE_SUSPECT`, `SAMPLE_REJECTED`
5. **Dynamics & Performance**: `ACCELERATION_EVENT`, `BRAKING_EVENT`, `PERFORMANCE_RUN_STARTED`, `PERFORMANCE_RUN_COMPLETED`, `PERFORMANCE_RUN_REJECTED`
6. **Database & Storage**: `DATABASE_FLUSH`, `DATABASE_QUEUE_WARNING`, `DATABASE_QUEUE_OVERFLOW`, `DATABASE_RECOVERY`
7. **Road Safety & Alerts**: `ROAD_ALERT_RECEIVED`, `TTS_ANNOUNCED`, `AUDIO_FAILURE`, `NETWORK_ERROR`
8. **Export Subsystem**: `EXPORT_STARTED`, `EXPORT_COMPLETED`, `EXPORT_FAILED`

## 3. Event De-duplication Strategy

High-frequency 20Hz telemetry can emit 1,200 samples per minute. To prevent database bloating and log inundation, stateful de-duplication was implemented:

| Outage / Fault State | Transition In (Entry) | Sustained Outage Behavior | Transition Out (Exit / Recovery) |
|---|---|---|---|
| **GPS Fix Staleness (>2000ms at >3 MPH)** | Emits 1 `GPS_STALE` warning with initial age and speed | Accumulates `maxGpsAgeMs`, `minAccuracy`, `maxAccuracy` silently | Emits 1 `GPS_RECOVERED` info event with total outage duration, max GPS age, and speed |
| **GPS Accuracy Degradation (>35m)** | Emits 1 `GPS_ACCURACY_DEGRADED` warning | Updates worst accuracy tracker | Emits 1 `GPS_RECOVERED` info event when precision drops below $\le 15\text{m}$ |
| **IMU Saturation ($>120\text{ m/s}^2$)** | Emits 1 `IMU_SATURATION` error | Prevents redundant event generation | Emits 1 `IMU_RECOVERED` info event upon returning to normal dynamic range |
| **Telemetry Gap ($>2000\text{ms}$)** | Emits 1 `TELEMETRY_GAP` warning with delta time | Tracks max gap length | Emits 1 `TELEMETRY_RECOVERED` info event with elapsed gap seconds |

## 4. Database Schema & Migration (Version 5)

## 5. Forensic Export Bundle Specification

The export subsystem (`field_test_export_service.dart`) produces a self-contained forensic archive:

1. **`field_test_events.csv`**:
   - `timestamp,ride_id,event_type,severity,message,speed,latitude,longitude,gps_accuracy,gps_age_ms,lean_angle,longitudinal_g,lateral_g,confidence,metadata`
2. **`field_test_session.json`**: Complete structured forensic bundle including session metadata, computed quality summary, serialized event timeline, performance runs, and diagnostic counters.
3. **`telemetry.csv`**: Complete 20Hz raw/filtered sensor sample trace.
4. **`ride.gpx`**: Standard XML GPS track trace with custom extensions for lean angle, speed, and acceleration.

## 7. Rider Field-Testing Guide (Physical Real-World Test)

To execute the physical validation test on your motorcycle:

1. **Mount Phone**: Secure phone in a rigid motorcycle mount (RAM mount, Quad Lock, or stem mount).
2. **Launch Application**: Open MotorSignal and verify GPS has locked (Green dot / Accuracy $\le 10\text{m}$).
3. **Arm Field Test Mode**: Go to **Settings $\to$ Field Test Mode** and ensure the switch is **ON** (Logger Status displays `ARMED`).
4. **Start Ride**: Tap **Start Ride** on the main dashboard.
5. **Ride Without Interaction (30–60 Minutes)**:
   - Perform a mix of stoplight urban riding, open cruising, and corners.
   - You do NOT need to look at or touch the phone during the ride.
6. **Finish Ride**: At the end of your trip, tap **Finish Ride**.
7. **Inspect Forensic Report**:
   - Go to **Settings $\to$ Field Test Mode $\to$ View Reports**.
   - Review your **Ride Quality Score**, **Sensor Health**, **Performance Runs**, and **Event Timeline**.
   - Tap the **Share/Export** button in the AppBar to export the complete ZIP package (`field_test_events.csv`, `field_test_session.json`, `ride.gpx`).
