 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

After having driven self steering tractors and combine harvesters for almost two decades, I am getting a bit twitchy waiting for automotive driver assist functions to get into the public on mass. My first one was a windows98 box running a touchscreen monitor and differential GPS in an old Toyota landcruiser towing a boomsprayer in 1999. I have decided that because I am a sucker for a cause I will collect driving data for a small startup company doing AI machine learning. I dont have a car with lanekeeping or adaptive cruise control so there is no point collecting the cars canbus data but I can use their dashcam software to record my journeys on our scruffy Australian roads. The hardware for this is not much, a mobile phone with some heatsinks and a fan stuck to the back and a small pcb all jammed together in a 3d printed case. the software is an app called Chffrplus running on the EON dashcam devkit  photo: comma.ai I do get some benefit -the EON unit can run other apps like waze and spotify -dashcam footage -points towards some new tech goodies if something cool happens. Hope they like footage of dirt roads and roadtrains  I'm confused, no wait... maybe I'm not... |
