DSDN112 - First Pathway - Camera

So the Camera feature of my navigational device is mainly used to take photos of issues in the current path, such as roadworks or a dead end. The image is then sent over to the chip which gives three options.

Save - Save the image to the limited memory of the chip, allowing the capture of interesting or exciting short-lived events quickly without missing out or having to take a camera or phone from your pocket.

Delete - Deletes the taken image instantly so it does not take up space, useful if a photo ends up being bad.

Recalculate - This is the main feature of the camera. It records the roadworks or road block and 'recalculates' a new route to take to reach your destination in the most efficient time. Recalculate allows the camera to communicate with the chip on the other lens of the glasses and this results in a new map being drawn in front of your eyes, literally!











The path that is taken to get to the camera and recalculate will be shown in the flash project, but for the time being, here is several jpegs showing how the path will go.
