8 channel video switchbox
🎥 8-Channel Video Switch Controller
This Lua-based microcontroller allows you to switch between 8 different video inputs using a simple composite channel selector. Ideal for multi-camera vehicles, security systems, or cockpit displays.
🔧 Features
Supports 8 separate video feeds (Video Input 1–8)
One composite control input for channel selection (Channel 1 Up, Channel 2 Down)
Displays the currently selected channel number on the Info Panel output (channel 3 to to a 7-segment display)
Designed for easy integration into any vehicle or base
⚙️ Logic Ports
Port Type Direction Description
1-8 Video Input Video / Camera inputs
9 Video Output Selected video to display
10 Composite Input Channel selector (Up / Down)
11 Composite Output Info panel: selected channel number
🧠 How it Works
Internally, the script controls a binary tree of video switches built from standard 2-to-1 “Video Switch” blocks.
The input number determines which of the 8 video signals passes through to the output.
Each switch layer is handled automatically—no manual logic wiring is required beyond connecting the inputs and outputs.
📜 Tips
You can connect any camera or monitor blocks directly to the video inputs/outputs.
The “Info Panel” output can drive a 7-segment display, LCD, or numeric indicator.
Perfect for multi-camera drones, submarines, or monitoring systems.
