Nowadays people have a lot of unused laptops with powerful CPUs (much powerful than any Paspberry Pi and/or Radxa). It would be great to have running ruby GS on such hardware.
Another usecase is game consoles like Steam deck, Legion go, Asus ROG Ally, etc.

While since 2011 majority of systems have powerful video decoding engines (common project for them is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Acceleration_API) I believe it is not initially necessary to use them as CPU will be enough to decode video with acceptable latency.

I am personally very interested in Windows support and am curious what the level of effort would be.

I have a unique use case but @lesykm makes a compelling argument that would benefit a lot of people. I think it would also raise awareness and usage of OpenIPC and Ruby.

Assuming that this would require a significant effort, I wonder if there is a simple "first step" that would add a lot of value for a lot of people. For example, just displaying a video feed with no OSD would enable minimalist FPV flying and easy group spectating for many hobbyists and people curious about FPV.
