The user data is 984 bytes * 50 hz = 49,200 Bytes per second (393 kbps ).

An appropriately compressed 160x120 image is 1300 - 1800 bytes. We fit each image over two packets, along with a pretty decent amount of telemetry.

160x120 is a bit small, so we stretch it to 320x240 on our Dashboard. Because the eye integrates video very well, it's much more than usable for the driver.
