Re: GPS on HD
by Ray Palmer on Jun 10, 2009 at 1:44:27 pm

Mark,
I have found a product that turns GPS info into an audio signal and then back to GPS.
We have used it to record HD video on any camera by putting GPS information on one of the audio tracks. Leaving a second audio track for a microphone. Here we use a hard wired mic and put the mic into one of the ear muffs. That way it records all of the conversation that happens in the helicopter. Great for a slate.

The GPS, now in audio format, is married to the HD video. The same unit can decode the audio back into a 9pin serial that talks to a laptop.
When we play back the videotape, we use the "Street Atlas" program to show where we got the footage and display GPS information.

When we bought the encoder/decoder it was only $400.

Let me know if this is something that might work for you and I will search for a link.
