An enhanced version of a sophisticated unit to improve your road safety when driving.

Speed cameras have become a common sight on our roads, and while they serve a valuable deterrent to dangerous driving, they are also a bane; the slightest, shortest exceeding of the limit can result in fines, points and an increase in insurance costs.

Devices to detect speed cameras have been available on the market for some time, and their interesting use of GPS technology lead to the EPE Speed Camera Watch project being published in Jan ’05. The publication of that article generated a lot of interest, and many suggestions for enhancements. The unit had a simple l.e.d. bargraph and acoustic alerter for proximity warning, and a database of up to 1000 camera positions.
