VCS graphics (How to insert picture or program graphics into the brain?)

We want to do some fancy things such as drawing a logo or insert a picture into the program while running the code. Does anyone know how to program graphics?

We didn’t include this functionality in the VCS 1.0 sdk release. The next version has calls such as


Brain.Screen.drawImageFromFile( "myimage.bmp", 100, 100 );

It is possible to do now via some undocumented C calls, but it makes the code quite a bit more complicated. If the VCS team doesn’t have a new release within the next 2-3 weeks then I will post some example code showing how to use those.

Thank you very much!
