FPGA Driven Nixie Tube Speedometer
Posted July 11, 2017 by Chris
".Anyway, Luke Miller over at FPGA Expert recently bought a vintage pickup truck and wanted to trick it out a bit with some custom electronics. He decided to use GPS to measure speed rather than hooking the speedometer directly up to the truck’s sensors, this way the project could be replicated on any make/ model of vehicle. Luke is using a Pmod GPS receiver which he is then running through his Basys2 Spartan-3E FPGA board to make this thing work.quot;
