Hardware
Unknown Issue: Support with Wireless Carplay / Android Auto adapters is not guaranteed nor confirmed. Most likely will work with one linked below (by Carlinkit).
Dongle Info: Carplay / Android Auto adapters linked below can also be found on Amazon if you do not trust Aliexpress, but will be much more expensive.
Computer System
The computer used in testing was the YouYeeToo X1 SBC. The reason this was used instead of a Raspberry Pi was due to the graphical processing needed to run a 3D unity app. This has a Intel Celeron CPU and a Intel HD iGPU capable of just reaching 60FPS running the Unity App.
Development System
The Arduino MEGA was used for control over USB to connect the car and the computer together using ArduinoOBD. This combined with the UART OBD adapter allows for the arduino to get direct access to the PID variables needed to read speed, engine running time, and more. Also other things like the GPS are used to get the current time since the system loses power often.
3D Printing
The 3D printer used was the Neptune 4 by ELEGOO to get good prints to create a plastic case. For new buyers, I would not recommend some Creality printers due to lack of support and bad quality.
