VehicleHUD

The purpose of this project is to design and build a projected heads-up display for a car that is projected on to the windshield. This system will pull vehicle information from the OBD-II diagnostic jack located in all modern cars.

Compiling Vehiclehud

The main program can be built simply using Make:

cd src && make

Using Vehiclehud

There is no configuration necessary. Just execute the program that is created by make. Vehiclehud will attempt to connect to an OBD-II adapter at a file location defined in the source. If it can connect, it will begin polling the OBD device for vehicle information and printing the current RPM to standard output.

OBD-II Adapter Support

Currently this software only supports the ELM327 OBD-II adapter. It is a goal of this project to encapsulate adapter functions so that adding support for other adapters is possible.
