How about take a GoPro and. Garmin Varia “the radar thing” and combine the two. When the Garmin picks up a proximity issue, drafting, it starts recording. Now the drafting is on video.
The Garmin field of detection would have to be adjusted down from its current use, however maybe that would t be too hard. Now we have detection of a foul.
The GoPro would be trigged to record on the detection of the foul and continue for let’s just say 30 seconds after the object is no longer detected. This gives solid Video proof.
For further validation, modify the video recoding with lines (similar to back up cameras) showing the draft window.
If then we get some fancy video analysis software, maybe it could determine if a foul should be detected further. That detection could be automatically flagged.
If there is front and rear mounted units, the two units involved in the detection could be tied (in the software) so that there is also detection verification from both angles front and rear.
Anyway, things we think about during this COVID mess
