I have been working on a a bunch of disconnected "smart" bicycle dashcam ideas.
See https://www.hotelexistence.ca/bicycledashcam/ https://www.hotelexistence.ca/bicycledashcam/ for version 5, which was just blind spot monitoring. I've also played around with license plate recognition and depth mapping.
Primarily, for me, this is a just a fun exercise.
Looking at exploring:
- Recognize the license plates of the cars around you. From a picture, it would look at the plates on all the cars, and then associate a plate number with the picture
- Record the speed of the cars around you
- Record the proximity of the cars around you
- A driver readable display, ie: “Driver ABCD1234, your current speed is 45”. Like a mobile Toronto Watch Your Speed program sign. Would a driver allow a cyclist more space if they were aware their actions are being logged?
- Log this data on a remote server
- Share this data, with a group. Perhaps associate “near miss” data from many cyclists, and identify troublesome areas, or troublesome cars.
