Install Navit On Raspberry Pi
6 months ago I bought an 80 series Toyota Land Cruiser and the time since has been doing the car up in preparation for a trip around Australia. Since its release the 80 Series Land Cruiser has earned itself a reputation as a dependable and an almost unbeatable machine off road.
But given the advances in automotive technology since the car was first designed. The lack of electronics and creature comforts in the vehicle make it look downright Spartan when compared to one of the latest 200 series Land Cruisers.
After some fiddling with Navit I have a usable offline map browser with POI, search, navigation, etc. Now only on PC (Debian), but it should work on Pi. If performance is a problem you may want to try a smaller map (I use an entire country map and scrolling is slow). Aptitude install navit maptool.

My first step toward bringing the Land Cruiser into the present day were replacing all of the standard factory interior lights with LED’s. But beyond this I had two main requirements: • The trip around Australia was going to cover a lot of distance ( ) so a very large supply of music is needed. • The 35inch mud tires currently on the car make the speedometer read around 10% lower than the actual speed of travel. So in order to avoid unwanted speeding fines along the way I was going to need a more accurate way of determining speed when driving.

The system chosen to fulfill these requirements would have to operate under normal automotive conditions ( 12 volt power, temperature extremes, vibration and significant knocks when off road ). Along with being easy to operate, highly customisable, touch interface and be extensible with normal off the shelf hardware.
Some kind of Android device would probably make it easy to achieve around 90% of what I wanted with minimal fuss. But I was concerned about possible flexibility issues and having an user interface that matched the vision in my head.
Around this time the Raspberry Pi foundation released the the Raspberry Pi and I decided I really wanted one! I just needed a project to justify the purchase. So that killed the platform debate, I was going to build a car computer for using the Raspberry Pi 2 and the new touch screen display. With the hardware decisions out of the way, the operating system part was easy I love Debian so the underlying system was going to use. From this point I just needed to figure out how the actual functionality was going to work. I took a look around at the majority of the popular Linux music players but most seemed to be lacking an interface suited to a smaller touch screen environment. I loved the look of but since it is built as a stand alone distribution I had some concerns about extensibility.
I decided in the end to roll my own interface using the. With the handling the music playback functions on the device and providing location data. In the following article I aim to cover off some of the design decisions I made during the development phase of the project.
Along with some steps on getting the auxiliary services up and running in case some one else would like to build one. The code to the project. UI Features At the time of writing the application front end offers the following features: • Now playing module on the home page allows a user to resume / pause or stop the music playing via the MPD daemon. • GPS backed speed and location readout updated every 1000ms. Providing the car’s current speed, heading, altitude and longitude / latitude location.
