Awesome brainfart idea that won't happen for a while..

[Vo0DO0]

There may not be much discussion to this, which is why its down in general, but I think its an epic idea and wanted to share, even if not really possible yet.

Ok, Ill explain it without going into possible technical solutions, but will mention the following:
Google glass, HUD, Action camera + wireless support.

The idea, Live streaming vlogs with user/audience comments being displayed on some form of HUD.

dangerous, but it would be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ill make a vlog and talk about it in detail on the weekend.

Thoughts?

Eliminate the major danger by doing adventure live streams where traffic and other roadway issues are not as prevalent.
I could see something like that happening on a mobile phone device with Google Hangouts or other streaming devices...
The HUD for feedback with Google Glass would be pretty cool.

You can already do the live feed direct to youtube, couple that with a camera linked to a wifi transmitter and phone and bingo your off. All the tech is there it just costs a bit and is a bit of weight to carry.

Think F1 etc

Easier:

You get a laptop with one of those 3g/4g bluetooth routers. Stick that into your topcase. (or in my case, into the fake tank )
Then you get a webcam, connect to the laptop, done!

OR get a IP surveilance camera, connect that to the wifi network of the router and its done (no youtube, though).
Eitherway, gopro wont work. (Can't livestream to become a webcam).
At least, not yet.... if we make enough noise, I'm sure the gopro can do it - just needs firmware programming.

Cant you just do it with a phone and the phone camera?
I might try this... I like being dangerous!

Looks like Pivothead has an Indiegogo campaign right now for the Pivothead SMART which allows for live streaming. But probably only with wifi, I could be wrong.

that would be pretty cool

Thats not a bad idea, I know theres an app for iPhone where you can record and it will stream live and also save onto the apps iCloud.

I personally think that's an amazing idea. I would love to see it happen.

Awesome Idea. This would allow more open conversion with our fans. Really great idea.

Am I the only one that thinks it's just flaming dangerous? Using a phone while driving or riding is already unbelievably dangerous, but the equivalent of reading your texts on a HUD would be suicide and possibly murder.

If you're looking for a legal backlash for various systems/States/countries to ban motovlogging - as this would bring it right to the forefront of their issues - this is a surefire way of going about it.

In my opinion.

Which could be a load of bull if I have misread something. This glass of red is lovely.

I'll join you on this one O8.

I'll fetch me glass too!
