while i have a render queue..

thought id pop another post up to say a bit more about my idea, the thought of using an automobile for information navigation seems absurd, but in the right way could be achieved to great levels.

The idea im looking at doing is the images and videos that are projected onto road signs and other vehicles on the road would be shown on the windscreen, much like a virtual camera as the windscreen information would then latch onto something and travel with it giving an illusion that the objct appears on the outside world.

When in fact it is just eye trickery where the cars onboard computer projects the images onto the screen to make it.

A concept idea of having the dash projected onto the windscreen for stuff like speedo and rev counter etc can be seen here:



The main concept behind my idea ive said before is current sat nav technology, this concept could use anything in place of road signs and van slogans etc, in relevance to where you are going, by possibly removing all but on exit on a roundabout roadsign so that you know which way to go for example.

this idea has also been developed from another technology, "geotagging" this process is where a picture or other piece of data can be viewed and more information will be shown ontop of it such as pictures of the actual location or co-ordinates aswell as possibly even whats available.

such as seen here:


The concept im creating is of such a 'real-time' geotagging process.
