John Becker (all tributes to his geniallity) posted very interesting project in EPE Magazine, May 2001 issue - "PIC Graphics L.C.D. Scope". It is simple, one-channel scope based on PIC16F877, using LCD graphics module 128 x 64.
Splendid little one project!
Most benefitial is its size - it is very small and compact, yet doing pretty descent job, covering majority of amateur measurements. It can show scope vaweform, amplitude value and frequency at the same time on display. Low consumption and very compact.
Looking at Tinkerers PI project and reading his interesting discoveries i got also interesting idea; how about if we include John Becker's scope in finall md design? Instead of projecting other way of indication, we can simply use already made scope and include it in md design with use as detailed indication of some processes in device. With some multilateral switch it could be switched between check points in design and observed various points of Tx-ed or Rx-ed signal, as well as to scope finall output signal which usually goes to indication stage (audio,scale or whatever).
Scope is small and compact with low consumption, it could be easy included. Doesnt occupies much space but offers more features than ordinary indication we are used to meet so far.
Tinkerer posted few scoped shots in his project thread. Same could be monitored via this compact scope.
This also could be used as an upgrade to any other md project...
How about that?

... but to be useful this seems difficult and sophisticated job. I think that this can be made to recognize some objects but a lot of hi-tech engineering is needed.
