Many new cars have an optional head-up display or HUD, which is either projected onto the windscreen or has a separate transparent screen, but now there’s an aftermarket alternative.
It’s called Exploride and according to its creators, it can be equipped on any car, even an older one.
This solution comes with its own screen, just like the older Garmin system that never caught on, but it has additional in-built functions. You connect it via a Bluetooth adapter into the car’s OBD socket and it will even be able to display engine parameters depending on make and model.
It also comes with a front-facing camera with 8 Gb of in-built storage, which is enough for 4.4 hours of 720p video.
However, unlike the Garmin solution, this idea might just take off as it already seems to be popular. In the nine days it’s been up on Indiegogo, it’s convinced nearly 600 people to contribute for a grand total of $166,000.
Check it out in the official promo videos posted below and see some of the additional functions like the gesture control or the media streaming capability.
