I've added a few things to my head unit but i would like to add more sensors.
First was the external wifi antenna.
Then the extra ground from the display panel ground to the chasis.
And now im wondering how i can add basic arduino sensors.
Such things as:
Accelerometer
Gyroscope
Compas
Light intensity
Preasure
Temperature
Is it as simple as getting the sensor and adding it to the i2c bus or is there a better way?
Another thing is that I'd like to add a battery backup and connect it so that the os recognises it and gives me voltage and temperature. How could i do that ?
And lastly I'd like to change the right tune knob to a rotary knob instead of the spring loaded one. I just dont know if i could get a rotary one to replace it or if i would have to use a rotary encoder and an arduino to translate that into momentary on/off's.
Thanks
