Custom USB Parking Sensor interface (formally PDC-USB)

**HiJackZX1** · 08-18-2008, 11:20 AM

D@mn, I thought I was done with buying stuff.... I have 17 USB ports and only 2 left, but now that i have seen this, I guess Im down to 1.......... Ordering my kit this weekend.

PS: i notice in pictures of the plugin for CF, it shows the sensors covering the front and back. Is this done by using 2 kits, or simply putting 2 sensors in the back and in the front? Im wonderig because doesnt that mess up the full coverage in the back by putting 2 in the front? If anything.... Can 2 kits be used or am I just being to paranoid and it will work with 2 front, 2 rear?

PS#2: Ok I read the whole thread.... I think the 8 sensor version would be awsome..... That would be alot of wiring though.... Maybe 2 in the front and 2 in the back will be good.

solution for Front(4)&Rear(4) sensors is:
You need:
2xPDC LED Sensor system(4 sensors, BOX where you connect sensors)
2xUSB interface board
1xPDC PIC LED v.1.00
1xPDC PIC LED v.1.10

Both USB boards must be wire connected NOT wireless. you must have specialy builded software plugin. CF plugin will have this included and maybe Standalone application PS Holmes will have choise which version would you like to start if Robby will add this...

Dejan,
Whats with the Q7?
If you need a roof shot of a stilo i've come across an app from google called sketchup (sort of like cad) and there's a stilo model available,it can be easily manipulated and a roof shot is easy.

You mean plugin car picture? In attachment are two pictures of car which is included in plugin Skin. If you can get me Stilo image in same size I will be very happy

Dejan..... Im guessing your working with Wolf to get the plugin working..... I rather not buy 2 kits and deal with all that wiring. So am I able to say put sensors A + B in the front and C + D in the back. Will the plugin have the option to assign diffrent sensors in diffrent parts of the car?

No. But I think you can do this yourself by few mods in skin

I wounder why you would use 2 when there are systems that already that have front and back like the Pyle PLPSE6. Would it not be easer?

Because this boards/project is not designed to use with Pyle PLPSE6. So If you would like use this Pyle PLPSE6 device Robby must have one, develope from start new board, new firmware, new software and I think he will not do this, because this will take him a lot of time and be only few users which will use this front&rear system...Then on this Pyle PLPSE6 you have only 6 sensors. Then question is how accuracy is (This LED is 1cm)...
This is my opinion but this is Robby's choise if he will develope new board...
