EcoDrive

OBD fuel-economy dashboard

The problem

Drivers rarely get clear feedback on how their habits affect real-world fuel economy.

What I built

A vehicle data platform that reads OBD data via an Arduino bridge, exposes it through a REST API, and visualizes fuel-economy trends in a Next.js dashboard.

How it works

I wired an Arduino into a car's OBD-II port to read live engine data, pushed it through a REST API into MongoDB, and charted fuel-economy trends in a Next.js dashboard — so you can see which driving habits actually burn gas.
