Versatile Driving Interface (VDI) served as my thesis project while studying for my M.F.A degree at Parsons The New School For Design. VDI is a mobile application created for tablet devices that explores modes of interaction and communication between the driver, mobile tablet device and car in the context of driving. The application will combine shared functions between the tablet and the vehicle such as music, temperature and navigation. Additionally, it will interact wirelessly with discreet functions of the vehicle such as windows, mirrors, trunk, doors, gas lid., etc. The application will also receive information from the vehicles diagnostic port, giving it access to a wealth of realtime vehicle information. Through this shared information tips can be given to the driver, depending on the state of the vehicle. See more about VDI at vdiproject.com

Sensor Graph is an Android app that uses the Amarino Toolkit Plugin to read real time data from Arduino.

I thought I would post a little tutorial on this, since it took me quite a while to get this running. The Amarino Toolkit consist of an Android application, a Arduino Library, and a Android plugin, that allows android applications to communicate with Arduino. While it is relatively simple to get the examples working, you will require some knowledge of android phones, android os, soldering, Eclipse IDE or equivalent for modifying and packaging an android app, Arduino, Java programming language.
