Hello,
I was bored and came across an idea. Something more fun than actually useful I guess.
Unfortunately, I possess very little, if any, coding skills.
Basically, I was wondering if it would be possible to use either a dashboard camera or webcam connected to either an Arduino, Rasberry Pi or something else, that would enable to the camera/program to track other vehicles in front of me.
And then use aftermarket parts to create a HUD for my vehicle that would basically highlight the vehicles in view (imagine the Iron Man helmet, only a little more believable). And also, if possible, to detect the closure rate of vehicles, vehicles changing lanes within a dangerous distance, etc. and give an aural and visual warning.
I became curious about this because I drive 5-6 days a week and around 10 hours a day as a medical transportation driver.
I just thought it would be a cool project and I was driving around bored and wondering how to make it cooler and more interesting.
Is this even possible?
