I need to produce a simple, very low cost product which is a TV set-top box to be connected inline with the TV signal cable that will generate simple preprogrammed animated overlays. The TV program image will not be affected, just overlaid.
I have Googled this but only find add-on graphics cards for PCs which cost several hundred dollars. I need something which can be mass produced cheaply.
Could this be manufactured cheaply (say under $10-$20)? What kind of circuitry/chips would I need? How do I program the animations? Where can I find out about this?
Could someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.
