Strange Car Remote
Controlling a car with an iPod seems like something take out of a fairytale or of a science fiction movie. But a man who is bound to set new standards, Jonathan Over, has just proven that it is possible and it can be done with the help of his newly invented program. He showed the world how he can not only write about stuff in technical publications, but also create strange yet futuristic devices.
The application he invented can be used to close and open a car’s doors, the trunk, the windows and to start the engine. The car owner can also see the fuel level, the speed and engine temperature on the display of the iPod. The program offer all around the world coverage, as it allows the presence of a GPS system to allow people track their car with Google Maps’ help.
The car’s computer is linked to a small laptop with the installed software that has a 3G modem attached. This is how the iPod becomes a remote control for the car. It’s wonderful that people will be able to open the car’s doors or close then even if they left the car at home and they are already two cities away. But we must consider the safety here. What if someone hacks into the system? If the car can be controlled so well, then probably the audio system can also be tracked, maybe people could listen to our conversations.
You have to consider safety and accuracy before getting something like this for your car. But if by any chance it becomes something huge you will also need a iPod fm transmitter charger so that the functionality of the device is truly around the clock. It would be too funny to use such a sophisticated program and run off battery on the iPod.
It’s surprising to realize just how far things have gone during the past few years, both with technology and invention. Who would of thought of such inventions when the iPods first appeared? No one. They were simply plain music players, and few people tried to attribute them more tasks back then.
