Video data pre-processed in real time
Ultra fast cameraLink digital video acquisition and real-time processing boards offers real-time pre-processing of the video data.
Video images converted without framegrabbers
Analogue to digital video converters capture and convert NTSC/PAL video into digital images, then transfer them to a host computer, eliminating the need for plug-in framegrabbers.
Framegrabbers integrated into embedded systems
Real time image capture can easily be integrated into an embedded system. Support for Windows 95/98/200/N, VxWorks (x86) and Linux/RT Linux is provided.
The product line is available in various formats including PCI, Compact PCI and PMC models.
The LeonardoT is equipped with a state of the art Xilinx Virtex-E FPGA, offering real time pre-processing of the video data, such as; contrast stretching, RGB mosaic colour restoration and random 2D convolution filters.
The video data is stored in a very large on board memory.
The maximum image resolution is 64K*64K pixels.
The common digital video interface is CameraLink compatible, for Base, Medium and Full configurations.
The computer bus interface is electrically compatible with PCI 2.2 and mechanically compatible with standard PCI, Compact PCI and PMC.
The bus interface is 64 bit/66MHz, resulting in transfer rates of up to 528MB/s.
The top of the range CL-P models include an on-board 600MHz, 64-bit RISC processor with 4Mbytes of zero-wait-state SRAM cache memory for real-time application specific on board video processing.
The LeonardoT CL family is currently supported for Windows and Linux and drivers are supplied with the board for these operating systems.
Support will be available shortly for Real-Time Linux, Solaris and QNX.
Prices start from around GBP 1,500 and all CL versions are available for immediate delivery. Request a free brochure from Kane Computing ...
