Shooting with an overlayed guide/reference image?

Hi there. I've done several google searches to absolutely no avail on this topic. I'm looking for a way to accomplish something akin to (in my imagination) inputing an image into the camera to act as the digital grid display would, as a transparent overlay to what I'm seeing through the viewfinder. I could then position myself/camera and the item to align perfectly with a reference image I want to match as closely as possible. In-camera software? Hardware? Other??

 

I've read about the in-camera dual exposure features, but what I need to do would be more like being able to see one exposure WHILE framing the next shot over it (as opposed to combining the two after both have been shot).

 

Suggestions welcome!

Ah, ok, it's a Magic Lantern function! Just watched a YouTube video on it and that seems to be exactly what I was hoping for! Thanks again.
