Bicycle Black Box

[kitchenman]

After all this "work" on attaching cameras it seems to me that in the not too distant future the electric bike makers will be include them as part of the standard build. I suspect there will be multiple cameras feeding a single control centre or black box. A front and rear cam will be standard with the ability to add extract camera inputs from body cams. helmet, goggles, lapel, etc ..
I suspect it wont happen overnight ... meanwhile me, morphix and the others will continue pushing the boundaries and we will be looking closely at the next generations of your e-bikes.

Sounds good! Cameras are like socks I say, one can never have too many ;-) Talking about black boxes..I started working on a "black box" already in the form of the ITX system I mentioned..I've ordered a few bits to get it up and running but I have to wait until next month for my rear rack to arrive until I can mount it up for a test ride.. maybe it will be first ebike with an onboard computer

I have a LARGE video from the weekend (870Mb) from my trip around that lake I mentioned (2km)..the video came out not too bad with the camera mounted on arm, more shake than the shoulder mount, but still, the side ways filming is certainly different and interesting.. I will upload it tonight and leave it running overnight..

I went for a nice ride this evening after work as it was too nice a day to go without taking the bike out.. didn't go too far (knee still playing up) and was mostly on throttle, but really enjoyed it, very relaxing..certainly nice having the choice not to pedal
