Volty MIR - [M]ap + [I]intelligent [R]everse Camera (WIP)

Project to build a display capable of showing maps and reverse camera feed for my first-gen Chevy Volt.

My Volt does not have built-in navigation nor reverse camera. So why not build a display unit to do that?

Requirements

• Displays video from reverse camera (composite video input)
• Displays offline maps and/or navigation through a smart device (HDMI, VGA, or composite video input)
• Automatically switches to reverse camera when shifter is in R position
• Has brightness control (important for night time)
• Integrates well into the car interior

Possible upgrades

• Keypad for quick actions

Steps

In no particular order:

• Find a suitable LCD and a driver for it
• Find a reverse camera
• Set up a smartphone to display maps
• Build an automatic input switch
• Figure out power needs and best way to wire and place everything in the car
• Design and print an enclosure/holder for the LCD
• Design and print a holder for the phone
