Maker Paul Slocum engineered a custom Raspberry Pi-powered OBD2 monitor that displays information about his 97 Honda's engine via Bluetooth dongle.

A developer called Paul Slocum has created a digital dashboard for his 1997 Honda using a Raspberry Pi that gets information from OBD2 and then displays it on a 3.5-inch Waveshare IPS GPIO screen.

This Raspberry Pi project can be used to add a modern touch to an old car. This device allows the engine temperature, speed and the RPM to be seen on a digital dashboard.

The screen connects to the Raspberry Pi via an interface called DSI to provide a heads-up display of whatever’s taking place on the Pi. It has a resolution of 800 by 480.

Measuring 15.6 inches across, the Raspberry Pi Monitor is as big as a full-sized laptop display, with onboard speakers, and an integrated stand.
