Been working on some software to overlay flight data on video so I just thought I'd share the results with you guys. It takes in an RDAS file and a source of video and you just tell it which frame is t=0.0s. It would be easy to modify to use other data sources too.
Thanks go to DamianB, NiallO, DarrenL, RichardO and MacFlan for their comments during the development.

How cool is that! :-D
That is most EXCELLENT!!! TOPS!
Cheers, Clint
way cool. check this one out:
oops wrong url:
Does it work with NTSC video, or just with European formats ?
It may take a little tweaking to move things around to fit a NTSC frame but I don't see why it couldn't be made to work.

Fantastic idea. I'm at work so can't view the video at the moment but in concept the idea is fantastic. Nicely done sir.
Now all you need to do is construct an ASIC to do it real time...

That's a very neat bit of kit. I'm not keen on the idea of overlaying on the video at source though, it will invariably be over the bit of the image you really want to see. I've done something similar on an underwater ROV but that was the only way I had to get depth/bearing information back to the surface so the operator could control it.
