Hacker manages antique car via iPod touch


Specialist modify electronic circuits of a 1969 Pontiac to be controlled by your iPod touch, check out the video
The mechanic / hacker / transformer cars Dave Phipps modifies vehicles for years and decided to do something unusual gathering technology and vintage cars. With a 1969 Pontiac GTO convertible in hand, Phipps decided to include windows and doors machines, a wireless network and voice control via Bluetooth in the vehicle. And all of it controlled by an application for iPod touch that allows you to manipulate all systems of the car on the fingertip.

How did he do that? The first step was the installation of Wi-Fi network in the GTO transmitting a signal to your iPod touch. RedEye with a router, normally used to turn the iPhone and iPod touch into a universal remote, Phipps adapted it to the electronic systems of the vehicle.

You can open the hood of the car, turn on the stereo, headlights, alarm and even the engine with the choice of a button on the screen of the iPod touch.
