And maybe replace the CCTV cameras here at the curling rink since the ones we have aren't sharp enough picture and it seems like any good CCTV camera is expensive
I have no idea what curling is(I'm American) but that sounds pretty neat to replace the app radio deck. I don't know about your deck but couldn't you hook up the Pine64 along side your current deck? Or are the features of this deck that restrictive?
Currently, to get navigation I have to get a special cable to hook up my phone to the deck, and have the parking brake bypass switch. So without going that route, it's no more than a regular deck except it happens to support a 2TB seagate backup plus drive. My original plan was to install a tablet, but I couldn't find any without the charging port on the bottom in landscape mode, and the software side was a little difficult to get working. I'm hoping that I can hook up front and rear view cameras to the pine64 and use it to record the video as dash cams.
