    • Scope
    • Spectrum
    • Waterfall
    • Audio Spectrum
    • More 2D visuals
      • Add faint grid for sense of scale
      • Indicate outer spectrum edges when zoomed
    • 3D visuals
  • Demodulation:
    • Basic modular expansion
    • Multiple demodulators per IQ stream
    • Audio device selection
    • Modes
      • FM
      • FM stereo
        • Experimental, needs improvement
      • AM

      • USB
      • DSB
      • RAW
    • Controls
      • Display Frequency and allow manual adjustments
      • Allow selection of demodulation type
      • Display separate zoomed-in view of current waterfall and spectrum, allow adjustments
      • Display signal level and allow squelch control
      • Display audio output selection
      • Volume control
      • Demodulator input filtering
      • Audio filtering
  • Basic Input Controls
    • Drag spectrum to change center frequency
    • Hold shift and click on waterfall to create a new demodulator
    • Clicking waterfall adds new demodulator when none visible
    • Drag center of demodulator on waterfall to change frequency
    • Drag edge of demodulator on waterfall to change bandwidth
    • Double-Click to move demodulator to frequency within it's current range
    • Hold alt and drag range on waterfall to set demodulator frequency + bandwidth
    • Hold alt+shift and drag range on waterfall for a new demodulator
    • Hover demodulator on waterfall and press 'space' to toggle stereo
    • Hover demodulator on waterfall and press 'd' or 'delete' to delete it
    • Keyboard arrows adjust frequency, shift for faster change
    • Undo / Redo action
  • I/Q Recording and playback
    • Recording
      • Record I/Q input data
      • Simultaneously record demod decimated I/Q and audio
    • Playback
  • Audio
    • Recording
  • Optimization
    • Eliminate large waterfall texture uploads
    • Update visuals to OpenGL 3.x
    • Resolve constant refresh on visuals that don't change often
    • Resolve driver/platform vertical sync issues
    • Group and divide IQ data distribution workload instead of 100% distribution per instance

Advanced Goals:

  • Design a plan for expansion via modules (dylib/dll/lua)
  • Support shell-based stdin/stdout tools for direct output/playback to/from CLI audio processing apps (i.e. DSD on OSX)
  • Update visuals to support OpenGL ES
  • Basic demodulator filter(s) that can be enabled and tweaked visually
  • Support multiple simultaneous device usage
    • Categorize devices by antenna connections
    • Allow locked frequencies to activate unused devices to continue demodulation on same antenna
  • Implement digital demodulation supported by liquid-dsp: (http://liquidsdr.org/doc/modem.html)
    • PSK, DPSK, ASK, QAM, APSK, BPSK, QPSK, OOK, SQAM, Star Modem(?)
  • Integrate LUA
    • Expose liquid-dsp functionality
    • Scriptable liquid-dsp demodulation
    • Scriptable digital demodulation output handlers
      • Create block output devices on *nix?
      • Create socket outputs?
      • Visual outputs?
    • Take control of additional devices and spawning new demodulators (i.e. trunkers)
    • Script manager / live editor
    • Provide scriptable liquid-dsp modulation for trancievers?
  • "PVR" like mode with waterfall time shifting
  • L/R and surround-sound balance settings for separating and listening to mono streams
  • Add tool for converting decimated I/Q recording to video
    • Select video features such as title/demodulation/scope/waterfall/etc
    • Render to video from GL frames->ffmpeg/mencoder /w demodulated audio
  • Accessability / Control
    • USB/MIDI control surfaces
    • Joystick / gamepad input
    • Vibration / force-feeback
  • Investigate compilation via emscripten using rtl_tcp for input
    • Create web server+rtl_tcp bundle for embedded devices
    • Use emscripten compiled CubicSDR via embedded web server

Target Platforms:

  • OSX
  • Windows
  • Linux
  • HTML5
