Nothing is impossible, we already know that, but controlling a car\’s function with an ipod is something that no one in sane mind would\’ve though possible. Still, since recently a known programmer developed a software program that can do just that. And he proved the entire world he can control his Mazda from distance just by using his iPod Touch.
His application is an astonishing piece of technology, as he managed to include Dyno functions like speed reading, fuel level reading, temperature, engine throttle and so on with remote control functions like closing or opening doors and starting the car. The software it\’s linked to a GSP and can offer full control regardless of the location, as it used Google Maps to localize the vehicle.
Your car has to be computerized. This means you will connect an in-car laptop to the car\’s computer and connect a 3G modem to the laptop. This procedure allows the iPod to stay always connected to the car, Even if you are located in a different part of the world, you will still be able to view and control your car via iPod means. It sounds a bit strange and also unsafe, since any new software programs that\’s using GPS seems so easily available to hackers, and since the program basically controls your car, you have to wonder what would happen if someone does manages to break into it.
You have to consider safety and accuracy before getting something like this for your car. But if by any chance it becomes something huge you will also need a iPod fm transmitter charger so that the functionality of the device is truly around the clock. It would be too funny to use such a sophisticated program and run off battery on the iPod.
Just thinking of this new addition to the market makes you wonder. How would\’ve though the world would go so ahead of its time with iPods? It\’s truly amazing that something like this is possible, but also a little scary since there\’s no telling where the technology might lead us tomorrow.
