Quanitfy your car. There's a lot of data being collected automatically in modern cars already, and the plan is to gather that data, and make it useful (maybe).
Data Sources
OBD
OBD stands for On-Board diagnostics [1]. It should allow us to gather a lot of information via a standarized format, called OBD-2, or EOBD (the European equivalent). There are OBD-2 connectors in most modern cars, and adapters for bluetooth or USB readily available.
I have ordered a OBD-2 Bluetooth Adapter on ebay, so we'll wee how well this works.
GPS
With a GPS receiver, we can link the data we gather to a specific location.
Camera
Add a camera?
Hardware
- Raspberry Pi
- OBD-2 adapter (bluetooth? USB?)
- Wifi -> upload data, via tethering or when at home near to a known access point
- GPS adapter
- blink(1) or RZLblink as status LED
- WebCam as Dashcam ?
- Powersupply ???
