GPS is integrated into our displays for a variety of projects include off - highway and marine applications. The Murphy Standard has a GPS demonstation screen. We talk to GPS systems out of the box using NMEA2000 protocol messages.

Collision avoidance would be more than that, including some central server or way to know where the other vehicles are. It also implies some level of liability, so this might not be a good win for us.
