DJT88 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Hi all, I thought I'd setup a hobby thread as my introduction thread was turning more and more into a projects thread. (don't consider my projects big enough for the 'projects' subforum, so didn't post there. Mods can move if required ) My idea for this project was to recreate the special brake light feature you see on some modern luxury cars. When they brake really hard the brake lights start flashing to warn cars behind them that they're braking hard. I've managed to create this for the high mounted stop light on my Supra. Let me know what you think! Things I've used for this: - Arduino UNO microcontroller board - Accelerometer - some transistors, resistors and wiring. function: The hardware: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3472574/Photo%2026-04-13%2019%2025%2029%20%28Medium%29.jpg managed to fit it next to the rear seats on the left. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3472574/Photo%2026-04-13%2019%2025%2057%20%28Medium%29.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will do the areal swap whenever this standard antenna fails. I've swapped my j-spec dials with TRD 320 km/h and 10k rev-counter already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Suprasteveo has done a few group buys on stubby aerials. He builds the kit. Great piece of work I bought a complete assembly - including the signal amplifier - off a S2000 being broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
