    Hi,

    The USB of the PICs cannot be used as a master and it can only operate as a peripheral device. Also for your app , its so much data I doubt whether the PIC can handle it (even at 1 frame/s and QIF resolution) without using an external memory.Possibility of a dspic also rules out. The algo to detect edges would seriously require a Moreover in a GLCD you cannot control the depth of the pixels normally. Refresh is too low to activate a bit by bit PWM update scheme. Why not use a cheap video cam (cmos security cameras) with composite output. Do a overlay using a PIC on that video and get the co-ordinates data from your cursor position. A cheap LCD TV should do the job even a monochrome monitor.
