Wow! Sleek! Amazing work Federico. This is beautiful. I wish something like that existed for the Windows environment. Judging by the first screen shot, am I correct in saying that the HUD view can overlay itself on the video feed from the aircraft? If that is the case, it's amazing. Makes me want to migrate over to linux for the GCS.

Hi guys,
yes,Acquiring images from a webcam on board autopilot(fox board g20 with arm9 cpu 400mhz http://www.acmesystems.it/foxg20/doku.php ),are sent via UDP,and finally appear in augmented reality in the UHD.
is not yet completed but soon I post everything on a quadcopter,I miss the place the code of the augmented stabilization sistem.
moreover, using a joystick as mouse 3d,
to manually control the UAV
to not use google maps, but instead osm-gps-map
when I tested and validated all code will insert new content and functionality.
seeking collaborators to help me, it's really a lot of work ...
p.s.(for now there is only the linux version.There is a small file to execute instructions in the package)

Wow looks good. The only simple improvement I can think of is replacing the word 'Battery' on the dial with a good old battery symbol.
