VCE-PRO
The VCE-ANCB frame grabber is a TYPE II PC Card with both an analog
video interface and Cardbus interface. It provides the ability to capture
analog NTSC/PAL video data from either a CVBS or S-Video source and
transfer that data to host memory via a Cardbus ( PCI ) interface.
Functionality
•
Provides two composite or S-Video inputs.
•
Captures video data from standard NTSC, PAL or SECAM
analog sources, formats this data and stores it into local SDRAM.
•
Retrieves the formatted data from the SDRAM and transfers it into
host memory via scatter/gather DMA over the Cardbus.
•
Provides a hardware based scaler function which can scale the
image size to 100%, 50% , 25% or a user defined scaling factor.
Since the scaling is performed on the card, less Cardbus bandwidth
is required to transfer the image to host memory.
•
VCE-PRO is capable of saving images to disk as either BMP,
JPEG or AVI files.
•
Provides an internal triggering capability that can qualify image
capture based on time as specified by the user.
•
Provides an external triggering capability that can qualify image
capture based on external signals.
•
Automatically overlays the captured image with a date stamp, time
stamp or user text.
•
Provides adjustable image brightness, contrast, hue and saturation.
Interfaces
Analog interface
The VCE-PRO provides two CVBS ( composite ) or two S-Video inputs
using either a set of stereo phono-jacks ( model VCE-PRO ) or a 15 pin
connector ( model VCE-PRO-F ).
