Guest anthonyblack Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 I have an idea for an application which i don't think exists at present. Because of my lack of in depth knowledge of XDA programming and hardware i could do with some advice on whether its a non-starter or not. Many top of the range vehicles these days have the option of an in-car rear view camera/viewer. My idea was for a retro fit device/application that would use an XDA as the viewing screen in conjunction with some type of wired/wireless video camera (usb or otherwise) that would be small enough to permanently mount on the rear of a vehicle. Obviously this video device would need to be small and inconspicous as well as weather proof. The quality of the video would not need to be particularly brilliant as it is mainly used for parking situations. It could also have security uses (time lapse/motion triggered recording). Anyone out there seen anything like this in existance or have any idea of wether or not this is pheasable?
