DIY - Street Level Camera Rig

Thought I would pass this along - Do it Yourself street level cameras for taking those images just like Google did for their street views. The rig has eight webcams, a route and a GPS all tied into his laptop. Apparently the pictures snapped are pretty good even at 60 MPH. I assume that's in plenty of light. So just in case you wanted to set up your own competitor to Google Maps and drive most major cities, you're all set. Personally, it seems like a great project to just see if you can do it.
