The out of box thinking is cool, but obviously a lot more complicated if you plan on doing a fleet. Most monitoring sensors are connected to the cellular network, and provide fleet metrics along with GPS across the entire fleet, live. Keep up with these out of the box ideas for monitoring. Your last one about monitoring ins and outs of people in a mall was neat.
I wonder how you would deal with powering the raspberry pi in the car. Would keep it powered while the car is on? Wouldn't that drain the battery? If not, just powering off a pi (i.e., when shutting the car off) can cause corruption of the SD card, if i'm not mistaken. Maybe a powerbank would work. Don't know much about cars. Maybe it's not a problem leaving it on permanently..
Back then I was thinking about powerbank in between the car and raspberry. You can detect that car is powered off and do a graceful shutdown on Pi. Just need to tinker with electric to power it on automatically when the car starts

Wow, never even thought about this lol
I love these unusual monitoring examples so far!
Great video Dmitry
