Gday all,
i know there are plenty of GPS'ers in Tas, so may i ask:
i'd like to test some GPS HUD code i'm working on. the idea is to display the speeds (inst,2sec,10sec) and heading in the corner of the FPV video. you can see these from top to bottom in the attached frame of low res video.
please PM me if you have a few mins of first person video with a GPS track going in sync?
i plan to release the code once i know it works ok...
thanks,
Kurt.
One of the guys in South Australia (I think it was Hamma) did this with his then record NM of 38 knots. Date of the run was 30-06-09, but can't find his post of the video. It showed his GPS speed in real-time as the video played. A lot of people commented of how good that was, but haven't seen it doen since. I recall him saying it took quite a while to get it all working. Be great if you can do it.
I haven't got any video and gps tracks readily available, but Izaak would probably be your best bet!!
It was Kimba ( Tim hemer ) the SA speed demons captain. was taken at clayton in the channel a couple of years ago,
might be on the sa speed demons site
saspeeddemons.blogspot.com/
or most likely on Tims own site
whitelionwindsurfing.blogspot.com/
found it for you here it is.
note i don't have the original GPS NMEA file, so I used my own (you can hardly tell for a bit!)
feedback welcome
Thanks Jimbob, that was the footage I was referring to!!!
Kurt, if you can allow real-time speeds to be easily shown on video footage, that's great! I'm sure there'd be more people wearing cameras on speed runs!!
I'll get some on Australia day with our dash for cash.
Maybe I can con Dave or Steve into wearing the helmet cam
cool we'll setup a helmet Cam, you can either wear my helmet or we'll sort something out on the day
a bit of gaffa tape and she'll be right
