This project consists on the use of a DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) driven by a PIC32 in order to draw point-based pictures on an oscilloscope (using XY mode).
There are several ways to generate these pictures, and they may even be created in real-time as a result of an interactive application.
We developed a desktop application that provides drawing utilities for creating still or animated pictures. This application uses a serial communication protocol for sending the pictures to the PIC32.
We also developed a simple Pong game to test the real-time capabilities of our communication protocol.
Here we can see the onion skinning feature in effect (previous frame is visible as a "ghost")
