Could you build this?

No Creating a system overlay for a homebrewed PS5 requires low-level C systems programming with reverse-engineered FreeBSD-based OS toolchains and graphics compositor injection.

What it would actually take: Development requires an unofficial PS5 homebrew SDK targeting FreeBSD 9/11 derivatives on the Prospero platform. The developer must exploit system privileges to hook into Sony's proprietary system compositor and direct-memory rendering surfaces, synchronizing framebuffers over running games without causing kernel panics. Deep console reverse engineering, OS internals, and hardware graphics pipeline knowledge are required.
