Figured it was about time I featured some of my works on here. By night, cars, lighting, and instrumentation are a few of the hobbies I bide my time with.

I hope you enjoy my channel!

    Just seeing this made me want to play Turbo Overkill again. Amazing work and i cant imagine just how much time and effort went into making it a reality. Any plans on adding selectable retro themed backgrounds? If you do please add that one old-school aesthetic design that you'd see on fastfood cups. White background with the turquoise brush with the gentle navy squiggle over it. I believe it was called Jazz (design). That graphic always brings me back.

    I love the 80's vibe of this cluster, especially the TRON looking background. But, was this really less expensive than the Mustang cluster?

  • @BlitzenDesignLab
    @BlitzenDesignLab6 күн бұрын

    @@ProfessorOzone the clusters like I used can be had for a fraction of the cost of the mustang ones and you can find better deals on them quite often. A lot of the efforts I put in would still be needed for the mustang one as well, so the only real difference would come from the custom faceplates I made

    Wow, nice work! That cluster looks amazing, especially the retro 80's background. I'd love to hear how you got the old system to work with the canbus in the cluster. I'm starting a project to build a customer gauge using a small esp32 touch screen, but I'm feeling a little intimidated by the canbus hacking that I'll need to do to get it to work with my modern Audi.

    3:33 what is this tool's name? I really want to get into "modifiying"(real term should be "hacking") already existing circuits and firmware to customize them(mostly carwise) and i think learning that tool could be a great way to start!

  • @BlitzenDesignLab
    @BlitzenDesignLab9 күн бұрын

    It's a bit of homebrew kit, but at its core it's nothing too spectacular! Just an ATmega with an mcp2515 can transceiver, which is sending the captured canbus data to an old android phone I'm using with a serial monitor. The plan would eventually be to write up some software on Android to organize the data and monitor for changes / decode on the fly, but this works for now. You can get the same data with an arduino Uno, a canbus shield and a laptop, I just wanted more convenience!
