FPV Viewer App

The FPV Viewer app analyzes live drone video feeds to help pilots and ground crews verify stream health, compare competing feeds, and benchmark performance under different network conditions. It ingests streams via RTSP, RTMP, or WebRTC and exposes real time metrics without requiring flight controller access.
Conceptually it treats the feed as a data path: capture at the source, transport through the network, and display at the operator console. It measures when frames arrive relative to their emission, tracks frame rate, and flags packet loss or stalls. Telemetry overlays can be enabled to correlate video with GPS, attitude, and speed data when the data is available.
Unique value lies in independent stream analysis that complements vendor dashboards. It provides lightweight latency estimates, jitter calculations, and a simple scorecard that operators can use during test flights, training, or production missions. The tool supports multiple feeds and quick switching while maintaining accurate timing references.
Core features include real time display metrics, optional telemetry parsing, overlay configuration, and export-ready metrics snapshots. Typical use cases are preflight feed validation, race event setup, and post flight review where understanding latency and reliability improves decision making.
