I've seen a couple people do a Brainiac 370z tablet install. Thought it was cool but didn't really look into it until the other day.
I think the thing that sold me is the integration of relay control via Arduino Uno. It's another thing for me to mess with. Luckily I have an Arduino sitting around not being used for anything already.
Relay Control via android app
I really wanted a wireless apple car play head unit. But apparently there are
wireless apple carplay usb devices that turn any android device into an apple car play capable device.
Also with a tablet I can just load Spotify on the tablet directly which is pretty nice.
other things that can be run are apps like Harry's Lap timer. OBDII diagnostics via my
OBDLink MX+
The tablet is huge and supports two apps on stacked on top of eachother which i think is actually going to be really nice
if you fast forward to 3:00 you can see the split screen in action
The relay can be used for any number of internal accessories. the relays supported can handle a 10amp load. Not useful for pumps and all that but for extra interior lighting, and the like it's pretty neat.
I'm going to install an
AUTO-VOX v5 pro so I don't need the backup camera to show up in the tablet screen, although with a bit of work that's actually possible to do.
Excited!!
