    Rear window lcd display.

    Would any one be interested if I made a kit that would hook up to your car (power and brake lights) and had a touch pad with pre programed messages. You could hook up an lcd/vfd in your back window and send messages to the car behind you (like "STOP" when the breaks are pressed). Let me know if there is any intrest in this and I might make some kits.

    [] Include:
    <> range (from sensors already available)
    <> Calculate predicted impact velocity
    <> if over some preset number, then flash "STOP YOU IDIOT!" -- "please apply your breaks NOW!"
    <> if rh is persistantly 'close' flash "Tailgater detected, EMP armed"
    <> WiFi detection

    ... even show short movie/video clips of a foot pressing the break peddal for 'em

    ...image recognition of 'the finger' == snaps a pic of their license plate and shows them the captured image... then "dialing your local police"

    gawd this could be fun.

    meanwhile driver behind distracted by having to read your LCD ploughs into the back of your car without even hovering over his brake pedal let alone pressing it, writing off the back of your car, carPC and said rear window LCD display.

    Just so you know, depending on the mood of your local police officer you can be ticketed for those things. I know one person that got a ticket just for having a sticker over his third brakelight so it said "STOP" - he was told it was a distraction to other drivers. Again - depends on what kind of mood the cop is in.

    That being said, you could also pick one up here rather than make your own:

    I kind of doubt this is legal....or smart. Kind of appeals to my sense of humor though
