Pretty interesting idea for me but due to other Bitcoiners' minds who have replied on the thread, it's hard to make the idea into reality according to today's situation.

As extra suggestion, if you want to earn money by driving, there're some sites paying you for sticking their advertisers' banners on your vehicle. I don't know are these sites paying by Bitcoins but you can convert the income into Bitcoins.

Your idea is very unique and interesting, but do you know that if you install crypto-mining devices in any vehicle it will have an extra load for the vehicle. It will greatly reduce the speed of the vehicle. You should find out about Crypto excavators, I think this is the best choice and creation ever, but its power consumption is too large.

Sound interesting, however, mechanical to electronic changes!?, it will takes a long road to make it happen.

Possible, if the only objective was to use cars or engine as power generator and not as computing power.

The whole car can be use as housing for mining rigs, especially if it was spacious. however, the fuel was too expensive.

No its not possible with current technology and its not ideal to me,kind of like a very stupid thought lol cos before you can mine reasonable quantity of coins your car battery will die on you

What if create some mobile platform installed into truck which takes a part of electric power from generator to mine coins during long trips or even in traffic jam?
It's profit can be evaluate from the power of car dynamo-system.

Does anybody seen this idea before?
Or it is totally impossible from the technique side?

Despite those who apparently don't see the value in this idea and only consider someone else creating or building the case, your thought of doing this is on par with those great innovators. Build, tinker, trash and rebuild til it's perfected. Just like what the innovators behind Bitcoin, your idea/vision will come to reality. "All is in the mind". BTC

I also thought about it before and even made some research, suddenly it turned impossible technically, and there would be no enough energy for mining coins.

I think it's impossible because the electronic device in the truck can only take out electricity alone can not be used for other functions such as vga, if there is already a feature in the truck that resembles the performance of vga then surely can.

Its possible.
Its also possible to mine gold with pickaxe standing on your hand while swinging the other.
Possible, but why in the hell would you do that? Cheesy

People may call you crazy for thinking like this, but dreaming way outside of the box is the only way that innovation comes about. Someone brilliant will take an idea like this and put it to action one day. We always can only picture things the way they are. People putting ideas like this down can't picture mining any other way than with big rigs and Asics, but think about this: Bitcoin will be mined for 100+ years. How many more coins and methods will spring up within that time and even after? It can't happen now by any means, but don't stop thinking outside the box.

Sounds like a cool idea actually. It's a shame that it can't be technically implemented now

do some physics & math and stop generating really stupid ideas.

no offence.

For me theoretically this will be possible, but with current technology or current market it might not due to lack of support or it might cost more than the benefit you will receive from it. First question from this technique, why is it not being developed right now were if u think of it, it is too easy to mine bitcoin using the power source from the engine of a car or any vehicle just by driving it, the cost of the fuel can be replenish by the income from the bitcoin you gain. The best possible answer is due to our technology as of now or no one has thought of this yet or the current costing for this is too expensive. But this idea is too good, just by the right time maybe in the near future someone can actually make it.

Cool idea to convert those thermal wastes into money, but apparently mechanical energy isn't sufficient to produce complex calculations that ASICs currently do with bitcoins. It could be a new "algorithm" that a coin could use but I doubt the feasibility of such an algo and the accuracy of it as well.

Good idea. Unfortunately I believe that realization is long way off. Can not imagine mining equipment working in driving conditions. At least for a prolonged time. When you are driving there is a lot of vibrations when you are in traffic jam you would basically use your motor as generator and burn trough the fuel much faster. Don't believe it would be worth it.

I think it is not totally impossible.

We can see a lot of vehicles with hybrid engines. Some of them accumulate excess energy. Others are producing power during breaking (I think it is a recuperation).

Some engines could give energy while they idling.

Another problem - is mobile hardware of mining station and internet-connection. It possible may not be stable.

It will be good. But it is impossible for current situation and technology. If that is possible, then why does the engines of big machine like oil rig, ships and airplane to used instead of cars. But this actually really helpful if someone can use this kind of energy to turn into mining power.
