Modified car dock= In car Droid video!

[adamsredlines]

Modified my car dock so the video camera on my phone still works when docked. Makes for some fun footage!

Two quick videos...a slow S-curve and a wide open run.

Interesting. Pretty cool, Now can you get gps to work and the video? Insurance companies would love this kind of evidence if you were hit or something. It would be undeniable for the other guy.

you cut off way too much, all i did was get a step drill and drill a hole the size of the camera and it works perfectly.

There's more than one way to skin a cat...
I didn't want a random hole, so I cut the tab off (which wasn't even touching/supporting the phone) so it just clears the camera.

I don't normally but have wanted to test out that road for a while lol.
I wasn't goin THAT fast.
Ok, maybe I was lol....how fast could a station wagon possibly go?

Thanks, pretty cool. I have a couple of thoughts:

(1) Damn, I thought I was the only one who lived in a remote area!

(2) I haven't checked, but I'll bet there ISN'T an app yet that does time-lapse. Simple idea, huh?...take photos at the interval the user requests (e.g., once per 5 minutes) then compile into a video that chronicles a day-long road trip! I'm on it as soon as my App Inventor invitation comes.

It hit 140 in that clip...had more juice but ran out of road. I've been told these will do 165 if the road is long enough...but I have no intention of seeing.

A time lapse camera app would be awesome...hmmm lol
Where's the app creators?

Would be kinda cool to docment my yearly 1200 mile christmas trip!

Your so innocent... a whole 20mph of. Haha after 100 i dont think it matters, the cop will rip you out of your car just the same And that road was long, if only you had another mile....

I've been thinking of doing something very similar to this so I can shoot video with my camera while I'm out storm chasing. It would be a cool backup to my real cameras.
