There is a neat flightgear connection here which I've probably mentioned
before, but would like to mention again (with pictures.)
http://www.flightgear.org/~curt/Models/Special/Rascal110_2/
This is a manually flown UAV (also pictured on the same page.) It has
an onboard camera angled 45 degrees down. It also has a gps/imu sending
data to the ground via a radio modem, so we can feed that into
flightgear and show a live synthetic view from the aircraft
perspective. We can angle the flightgear view 45 degrees down and it
matches pretty darn close with the real camera view. We had a guy
create a small chunk of photo real scenery for the area so it's really
neat to see the synthetic and video views match tree for tree, road for
road, building for building.
Regards,
Curt.
