I learnt so many new things in this post. Probably need to read it again another time to truly understand everything. Thanks a lot for taking the time to share the knowledge with us!

Added an overlay with a thermal image to the HUD. It took me a little longer than I thought to implement the driver for the MLX90640 IR thermal array. But it is already optimized and running at a good speed. It works in uncalibrated mode with raw sensor data received by I2C at 400 kHz and scaled by 4 using hardware acceleration.

You've become rather good at Vitis HLS. For some reason, I'm still struggling with it. In particular when I try to use it when streaming data to it or out of it via the VHDL fabric.

Coming along quite nicely. I look forward to seeing your progress.

Nice compass.

The last pic looks like a thermal hand...
