Here's a thought (although somewhat more expensive), would it be easier to use two PICs and two 4 Sensor PDC's?

I don't know the details, but it could be possible for CF/RR for example to have the plugin running twice (or the ability for it to manage two PIC's)

I swore I bought the correct, normal LED version. But now I have received it it is the wired version, and checking back on the advert it appears that nowhere does it say wireless. *doH*

Is there no way to get the wired LED version working? It seems strange they would redesign it entirely just for wireless communication.
Or, is it just that no-one has attempted to play with the wired version so cannot confirm it will work?

Is not possible to use the wired version because the data sent to the display doesn't contain information about the distance detected by the sensors, but just the ON/OFF condition for each LED (bars and digits).

Dejan is doing the honours there.
Already got a fully constructed kit from him, complete with box, very nicely put together.

_Dejan_

What do you mean with constructing? Only USB part or whole system?
Completed USB boards I have prepared. In 7 days I will have builded kits with sensors(But only limited edition I think 3-5 kits) So with this kits you will only put sensors on rear bumper connect it into main box and connect my box into USB(Wireless receiver will be builded into USB board). So this solution will be good for this people who don't have soledring skils...
More info about this you will find HERE next weekend...

Very interesting project, but...
Where to download the firmware binary and source code from?

/Me.

At post #4 you found the software.

_Dejan_

Firmware for PIC you will not find... You can buy programmed PIC from Robby BMW...

if I buy this kit (http://www.parkingsensors.co.uk/dolp...ng_sensors.asp), would you consider testing you PDC USB on it, and try to adjust it so it would work with this kit of 8 sensors? Or is it not at all possible?

I'm from Portugal, and i'm very interested in this kit, I have on my car pc the in dash K90 TFT touch screen that already as a entrance for the reaview camera that i've already tested, but I find your project much more interesting.

I'll be waiting for your reply

Best Regards

I'll take 3 of your complete kits mate......... I need an easy solution so buying it all from you would be great.

Please PM me or post back here and I'll send funds straight away.

Any idea how far away Centrafuse plugin is ?

_Dejan_

Im send you PM.
About plugin Im talk with Wolfgang, he has receive my boards and now we are looking for good&cheap IR USB camera solution. If someone have any idea please tell us...

Thanks Dejan.

Re camera's, I think it'll be more sensible to go with something like this RCA camera, as it's hard to find a USB camera that's waterproof. If you purchase this and then get a USB2 video capture device to plug it in to, then you've essentially got the same thing without having to run a long USB cable if you PC isn't in the boot (which mine aren't)

And then one of these or similar. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Computers/C...-169799152.htm

That's NZ dollars so about $ 30 USD

_Dejan_, I must have one of your kits! Please, fill me in all the details on what I need to do to get a hold of one on PM.
