There may never be a shortage of nerdy gamer innovations, but among the most impressive that I have seen lately is the Sega Outrun car. Created by arcade game enthusiast Garnet Hertz, the classic arcade cabinet is really drivable.

The Sega Outrun car is a result of the fusion of a classic game console, and modern technology including an iPhone, an electric scooter, and GPS software which displays real-time mapping rendered to look like the original game.

The GPS software finds the vanishing point of the road and then, in the manner of Google Maps’ hybrid setting, puts the Outrun Testarossa and road into the live-action setting. The iPhone’s internals keep track of progress and keep the screen moving in ‘real-time.’ (autoblog)

Wild! I wonder how long this took to take from concept to production.
