HUD for iPhone

Taymaishu · 01-30-2011, 04:25 AM

Hi guys,

Decided to test out an app this evening that I downloaded a while ago called Dashboard.

I ended up putting it in the storage compartment facing me, then realised it reflected off the windscreen with a reversed image.

So I activated "HUD" mode and placed the phone on my dash.

Voila! A speed, direction, trip time and tip distance displayed on my windscreen facing me in whatever colour suits!

Photos to come in a sec! But I highly recommend it for more accurate speed read outs (as we know, GPS is a hell of a lot more accurate than our speedos), especially on freeways.

Cheers

Cool. Can you see it at all in the daylight?

Is it laggy at all? And did you attach the phone to the dash somehow - any rolling about?

Daytime not so good - however i've just polished my windscreen inside and out so i'm sure it'll help.

Lag - none compared to any other GPS on the market. It's accurate as hell.
