In the Comments Below Let Us Know Auto Hacks Project Ideas!

Submit Your Projects Here:

The theme this month is Auto Hacks and it comes from a suggestion from Sean_Miller. Your project could use an IR sensor for backup assistance; involve instalingl a backup camera that allows for rotation left and right; making a garage precision parking system; involve using camera/machine vision to detect lane lines and alert on inadvertent lane change (hint, tie into the blinker circuit); or your project can involve experiments or projects related to CAN-Bus. It could also involve adding modern conveniences to a slightly older (or older) car.

Check out the latest episode of element14 presents where a531016 does just that in
