On Screen Displays?

[Ramius]

Hi All!
I thought maybe I would re-visit this question about finding an on screen display / character generator that has color characters. It would seem with all the drones out there someone must be making a device to provide the information about your drone. I know Eagletree has one however they will not allow their OSD to run on third party software such as a PIC.

Thanks, Ed

I`m still looking too, there must be something out there. I was monitoring this project http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1290963 but it seems to be dead now. B&W only but had potential
Cheers Pete

You don't say if it's for VGA, HDMI, PAL, NTSC etc and/or if it needs to overlay the OSD data onto an existing video signal or "just" put the data on a blank screen so I can't really "filter" my search but the LC74736PT is a 16 color OSD chip for QVGA and WVGA.

Hi Henrik!
Your right I should have been more specific. I wish to overlay PIC sensor readings onto an incoming NTSC (Never Twice the Same Color, LOl) 4:3 video camera. It is for my submarine and the video is from the periscope camera. I have found a post of someone who has done this and they do not answer any e-mails.

Best, Ed

hello,
do you need Fixed message (EX : camera 1)
or variable text
temperature, position .... etc
I think you are using PAL video !
forget NTSC one
