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 PL-A633 and PL-A634 Cameras include 16-pin headers for enhanced camera control and hardware triggering.
PixeLINKT Megapixel FireWire Cameras use the FireWire (IEEE 1394) digital bus protocol to streamline the capture, digitisation and processing of megapixel video streams.
These Cameras are designed to simplify real-time uncompressed video streaming and digital still image acquisition while maintaining uncompromising video and digital still image quality.
One FireWire cable can manage power distribution, PC-based control and real-time video streaming capabilities of the camera.
The Developer's Kit offers an extensive Application Program Interface (API).
This API is designed to simplify the most common tasks associated with configuring and controlling the CMOS image sensor.
Software developers can easily adapt existing programs or develop new imaging applications quickly.
PixeLINKT Cameras are compatible with Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, Windows Me, Windows XP and Mac OS 9.
The PL-A633 offers a monochrome option and the PL-A634 offers full colour capture.
Both are ideally suited for OEMs targeting markets such as microscopy, medical imaging, machine vision, surveillance and video conferencing/webcasting. Request a free brochure from Kane Computing ...
