• Real-time processing.

The processing of an image at the same speed or faster than the speed at which 
images are grabbed. Real-time processing ensures that no frames are missed. 

Also known as 

live processing

.

• Rotary  encoder.

A device used to convert the angular position of a shaft or axle, to an analog or 
digital code.

• Timer  output.

The signal generated by one of the programmable timers of the frame grabber. 
The timer output can be used to control external hardware. For example, it can 
be fed to the video source to control its exposure time or can be used to fire a 
strobe light.
