Hey GoPro, how about you take it up a notch better:
Feed the ODB-II data of speed, RPM, brake, throttle, and gear (or any other user selectable field) from the car's data bus and overlay that onto your video feed. NOW you have something that I really can use. Should be doable, IF, BMW will pass that data to the BMW Apps? Just a thought.
Would sure give that Corvette video solution a 1-up.
That would be nice but in the meantime you'll need a separate OBD device and software/acquisition data that will connect to both the OBD device and GoPro. That's what I do for my track videos.
