This is a prototype of my cid project

Video:

Basically system in the video have these added to a standard CID: A CID interface card, a WinCE 5.0 system and a touch screen.

The interface card is to provide the video input capability to a CID. A similar one is also designed by a german guy (hardwarekiller?), never seen his one so not sure what the differences are...

This card will need to be inserted to the CID...
Attachment 38863

Function of this CID interface card:
-4 channel CVBS/S-video input (PAL/NTSC automatic) including one channel for reverse camera. (It detect the video signal in that channel, and do not need 12V trigger from reverse light)

-1 RGBS input for HD (SCART), again pal/ntsc automatic...

-4 GPIO, can be configurated as I2C, SPI, RS232, Canbus, Buttons or switches.

-Brightness control (overide car brightness control).

WinCE system can be purchased from anywhere...Comes with bluetooth handsfree, and can run iGO8, TOMTOM, Route66 or any CE programs you like, and play movie, music and games...It has 1 SDHC and 1 USB2.0 port.
Touch screen is for operate the wince system.
