The

PCI-3C is a high-performance ‘plug and play’ PC-card for the PCI-bus. It enables
each standard PCI system to capture and store single images for image processing or full-frame
display of real-time video in a window (30 frames/sec).
The

PCI-3C operates as a PCI bus master, allowing it to transfer images directly to
the system or VGA memory without impacting the processor.
The

accepted on one of the color inputs. The video input is software controlled and accepts both
standard and non-standard video signals. Progressive scan and line scan video formats are
optionally supported. The grabber is also designed as a triple channel 8-bit digitizer for
monochrome video (three synchronized B&W cameras).
