Video compressor supports four simultaneous inputs
The MPEG104+ video compressor card supports up to four simultaneous inputs and features an onboard microcontroller dedicated to handling the computationally intensive video compression.
Compatible with Windows and Linux, the board is well suited for applications with space constraints and harsh environmental conditions, including high vibration and temperature extremes.
Both commercial and extended temperature rated industrial (-40 to +85C) versions will be released.
In addition to producing high quality MPEG-4 video streams from Pal/NTSC cameras and other video sources, the MPEG104+ compressor provides four audio input channels and an analogue video output channel to perform real-time monitoring of the recording sequence.
The card also supports motion detection functionality and has fully programmable or automatic static gain control for each CVBS channel, as well as programmable video quality control, and automatic switching between Pal and NTSC standards.
The MPEG104+ is expected to be in stock by mid/late Q4 2004.
Prospective customers can pre-order now.
Pricing starts at $690 each in volume orders of 100 units.
