GitHub Sponsors Profile
Hey! My name is Nishanth - I'm a creator in Chicago and love building / contributing to open source hacks that help people move about (e-skates, cars, maps, travel, etc.)
What I'm working on
Converting my Subaru BRZ into an electric vehicle - and releasing an open source vehicle control unit to go along with it
A collaborative group travel planning app
Previous Projects
Strados - an OBD2 diagnostics translation layer for cars into human understandable data
Ghost Drive, a device that lets you turn your car into a gigantic sim racing controller for PC or console gaming
F1 TV Playback Controls - a browser extension that enabled modern playback controls and Google Cast for F1 TV
How your sponsorship helps
Especially with hardware projects, there's always expenses related to custom programmers, getting help with SMD work, cabling and other miscellaneous expenses. Your sponsorship helps me get the equipment I need to make some fun hacks.
