1. I don't know how to generate this type of PWM signal on IO pins and I'm not even sure it can be done.


You will find its probably impossible to get real time image performance off PWM anyway. Think of the speed with which you need to change the PWM output, as a function of the PWM frequency, and think how long the filter has to act on that before you change duty cycles.

When I did it, I used 8 channel 8 bit DACS, arranged as a kind of analogue computer. I could get 255 points per frame at 25 frames/second, with image rotation, scale and translation.
