You plan to heat it ? I thought it was foam board in this prototype version.


Regarding the tuft testing, do you have anyone that can drive beside you and video ? It would save you the hastle of trying to rig up a camera rig.
It would actually take three people, since you need two people to drive and be looking at the road ahead.
Another option would be to have someone video from the side of the road as you pass by. Using a camera on a tripod would only capture a fraction of a second of the test since the camera would not follow your car, and it would ost likely be blurred.
Also, your camera might get stolen.

( Jut make sure they have a steady hand and know where you want them to point the camera. )
