digital gauges and tuning through avic

[Johnybeas]

Just a teaser im working on integrating the hydra with the avic for digital display of afr, oil temp, oil pressure, etc. Updates to come

Neat.
I was supposed to get my Alpine Blackbird today but USPS dropped the ball. >:[

This mod may potentially work on all pioneer systems, or at least all avics

[NikFu S.]

Whoops!

I have an Alpine, not Pioneer.

The application will be a mod to the pioneer avic gui it will be integrated with the hydra hopefully being able to make minor adjustments such as boost change for turboed vehicles and you will be able to see afr oil pressure etc i just spoke with the programmer of the application ill be working on the design of the gauges etc.

ok another update...

I'm working with a programmer to be able to integrate the hydra nemesis with the pioneer avic decks! Now not only will you have GPS, DVD, Bluetooth, and the usual's on an avic! We are working on getting the info from the hydra to show up on the avic in digital gauge form, no need for a million different gauges to show you all the stats on your vehicle.

Some of the gauges will include, boost, AFR, Oil temp, Oil Pressure, and more! You will also have the ability to set a street boost setting as well as a track boost setting that you can switch between with the touch of a button on your avic head unit! This will be integrated with the standard AVIC GUI (graphical user interface) so it will look like its supposed to be there! you can touch a button and pull up all your digital gauges and even switch between boost maps and more!

This is really exciting and I can't wait to show the finished product running in my SVX! I will post a link to some of the videos of the software we will be modifying to work with the hydra! Keep in mind the software is in its development stages so the look and feel of gauges etc. are pretty raw, once it is finished however it will look very clean and look like it is OEM.

Here is a link to the videos he's done with his HUD software using their tuning unit called standback, I've spoken with him about doing a similar setup for the hydra and I will be doing a clean design for the digital gauges, and it will be completely integrated with the AVIC GUI

here is my idea of an interface for the gauges

Any more updates on this? I'm running an Avic 920 in my SVX and I'd love to have this setup in as it's similar to my HKS CAMP on my Impreza.

As much as I hate to say it, John's turning out to be a lot like his neighbors at COBB.

Hey now.. that's enough of that yes there has been some progress the programmer will be writing me a new interface app for the Avic of my custom design that well be implimenting with my hydra 2.7 stage iv when I get a chance to touch the SVX again. The bodyshop broke a lot of things in my svx so when I get time I have to inventory all the broken items and submit a bill to them, at that time ill be getting the new hydra and doing a lot of work.

Good to hear that this project is not dead, now I need to search what a Hydra is,

http://www.hydraems.comis their website, however it's not up to date. If you look at my signature you'll see a link to a thread I have with the details of the most recent version of the hydra.
