Overlay Sensor Data onto Video Feed
Posted: Sun Feb 28, 2021 5:02 am
Hello,
I recently received the Stereopi and I want to incorporate it into a VR-headset type project. I have the Stereopi connected to a 5inch display, which serves as the display for my VR-headset. The native SLP runs flawlessly and I'll easily be able to configure the lenses to get the optics lined up for my eyes. However, I also want a way to display real-time sensor data in one of the corners, over the video feed.
From my understanding, the SLP is a specialized version of Raspian made for streaming and may not be ideal for this solution. I have attempted to recreating the SLP video feed on Raspbian Buster, but I am advanced enough in Python or C++ to do so. I can get the example codes to work just fine, but when I try to modify the codes, I run into issues. I can only get one camera to display unless I use the sample codes.
The direct display of the video feed in the SLP image is perfect for my purposes (it is fast and takes up the whole screen), I just also need a way to overlay real-time sensor data in one of the corners. What would be the best way to go about this?
Thanks!
