Let's go out in my Toyota Paseo. Today we go from Barry to Porthcawl with a few detours and make our way back. I am still perfecting the camera setup in the car so I need to stop a few times to check it is all still working.
The camera is a Logitech Streamcam which is plugged in to my Microsoft Surface Go 2. The GPS data comes from a NodeMCU that is attached to a GPS Unit and Antenna via a breadboard. It also has a small lcd screen on the breadboard so that I can check things. The GPS data gets to the Surface via my Pixel 4 XL phone acting as an accesspoint. In future I hope to add a moving map ability.
Future plans including throwing dice to determine where I will drive to next, having chat and comments to decide what goes on the lists. Where within South Wales and the South West would you like to see me go?
