Re: GSoC 2026 Proposal Feedback Request -"Graphical interoperability between CyberEther and GNU Radio"


Yes, I'm aware of that.

Since I picked this idea from the GSoC idea page, I mainly focused on designing CyberEther-powered visualization sinks for GNU Radio, so I didn't go too deep into those limitations in the proposal.

From what I understand, existing solutions like gr-fosphor are highly optimized but mainly focused on  waterfall and frequency domain  plots. With this approach, the goal is to support multiple types of visualization sinks using CyberEther.

That said, I do recognize there are limitations in this approach, and I'm aiming to build a practical and extensible integration that makes CyberEther useful within the GNU Radio ecosystem.

And I also saw recent GNU Radio Conference talks (2021–2023) on CyberEther, where future plans to integrate CyberEther with Qt for use in GNU Radio were discussed, and with that consideration I made the proposal in this direction.

Also, regarding the MSVC/clang-cl compatibility issue, I understand this could be a limitation for full integration into GNU Radio. For now, I was mainly considering a Linux based environment where CyberEther is supported and focusing on building a working pipeline first. Cross platform support can be explored later depending on feasibility .

Would like to know if this approach is reasonable for the project scope.
