Hacker News highlighted OpenTrafficMap, an early demo for mapping V2X traffic with low-cost 802.11p hardware.
The system receives and displays messages like CAM and SPAT, showing how live traffic data can be visualized cheaply.
Commenters debated how widely the data can be obtained, whether the approach could work globally, and when details might be published.
The demo suggests vehicle-to-everything traffic mapping may be more accessible to researchers and hobbyists than expected.
