Super early demo of FreeSpace video overlay system



Super early demo of my video overlay code. This is a post process that occurs after the mission to overlay the data on top of the video from my cheap Chinese camera. Note that the video is not in sync with the data, and is off by approx 250 ms. This is due to a reboot that occurred during the flight (cause unknown).

The code that draws the instruments is the same code that runs on my ground station. That happens to be displaying on a 256x128x1 vacuum flourescent display, hence the rather low resolution instruments.

This is the same flight I posted earlier, but with the video overlay.

Hi ,
how to you display this overlay information?Are you using special OSD?

No, it's just software I wrote that takes an AVI + a data feed and draws the overlay then outputs a new AVI. I don't fly FPV... so this is more for debugging and sharing flights with friends :)
