Video overlay shield for the Arduino

VideoOverlayShield is an Arduino shield that superimposes text onto a composite video feed. The board uses a MAX7456 on-screen display IC which is configured through an SPI interface. The MAX7456 stores 256 user-definable characters, so we’d guess it could also display icons and graphics with a bit of hacking. Thanks for the tip Eric!
