Thread: Volume rise to match increase in road speed

This is very possible. The easiest ways would be to just use OBD II to just read the speed directly and transform it into a volume modifier using some equation or use the speed read from a GPS device. This feature will be offered with my software when its released in a few months.

Have a microphone that can pick up the ambient noise, the louder it is, increase the volume.

Wouldn't increasing the volume increase the ambient noise and therefore increase the volume which would then increse the ambient noise which would then...

Sorry I thought it was a given that you would filter out the stereo music from the ambient noise
