Inspiration
The car max table
What it does
In order to provide a better way of showing a car’s availability to customers we considered using a solar powered LED light with Wi-Fi combability which will access CarMax's data through each's car stock number link. This data will refresh every 30 seconds to have recurring feed to show if the car is available or sold. This data will be linked from CarMax’s website with a specific stock number link to the LED contraption through a barcode which will be scanned and set through a Zebra TC51
How we built it
Through python, raspberry pi, Api Server and Beeceptor
Challenges we ran into
First time coding in python Learning how to run and activate the raspberry pi First time using an API
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Learned a brand new language python Used an API Using beeceptor Created an efficient idea
What we learned
How to work in a team and be able to work efficiently to get a project done How to use an raspberry pi
What's next for SPOTME
To have a patented idea and market this idea to car companies
Built With
