Arduino Speedometer - mascii - 17.06.2011
check out my arduino speedometer! i thought i'd share it
look at the bottom left!
[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXo6vIQNZg0[/ame]
this is how it works:
1. a filterscript saves the speed (in km/h) to a text file
2. a batch file is repeatedly run to send the text file through a serial port to my arduino
3. my arduino then displays it on its two seven segment displays!
future improvements: more digits!

I big WOW
Nicely made... 
Re: Arduino Speedometer - Michael@Belgium - 17.06.2011
say wooot xD Awesome work dude :d
Re: Arduino Speedometer - tjying95 - 17.06.2011
Pretty neat project there!
TBH, I have no idea of what shall I do with my arduino... :X

Accessing a file that many times per second (to make it smoother then it is) could lag the server.
If you know how to make this be sent to the serial port ( i don't) you could try using some tool to see what
memory part the speed (in SA) is stored in, and make an .exe send that to ur serial port instead.

First i thought you don't know how to use a GameRecorder so your recording your gameplay with a cellphone ,lol
).A BIG NICE FROM ME !

took me a while to notice the arduino Although it's nicely done

Very nice work. Now make me a virtual robot chick?
Re: Arduino Speedometer - mascii - 18.06.2011
thanks for all your feedback!
yeah im sorry about that poor video, i made a new one, check out the first post. hopefully it is more obvious now. i also managed to get the numeric value to increase and decrease by intervals of 1.

let me know what you guys think, and any cool ideas you have
Re: Arduino Speedometer - Mark_Weston - 18.06.2011
Very nice.
I have a suggestion for you.
If you own your own server, anyway.
If a player cheats, it displays the message on the screen with ip addres, player nickname, and how did he cheat?
So looks like this:
214.6.124.64 || Mark_Weston || Money Hacking
suggestion, only if you have a big server ;p
