We tried using a smaller projector but it was not bright enough. I think adding a monitor mounted up high like that was complexity we were trying to avoid. The driver station weighs a lot as is as well. Having that kind of weight mounted up high didn't seem worth it.

I do not believe we superimpose anything. Our driver doesn't really need to look at anything other than the camera feed and the robot itself on the field as most of the functions that need sensor input is automated. I don't believe we have a picture showing the display from the drivers perspective but we will try to get one.
