Model 817
PCI Express JPEG Frame Grabber
Model 817 combines the functions of a frame grabber, hardware JPEG encoder, and 16 X 4 video crosspoint switch, into a PCI-express (x1) card. It is capable of capturing full resolution color JPEG-compressed images and / or monochrome uncompressed bitmaps, from 16 channels at full NTSC or PAL frame rates.
Frame rate
Four identical video capture and processing units (VCPU) work together to compress JPEG images at 30fps on all 16 channels simultaneously for a total board throughput of 480 fps for 640 X 480 interlaced frames.
Hardware compression
Model 817 executes hardware JPEG compression to reduce the amount of disk space required to store images. Hardware compression greatly reduces the load on the CPU.
Multiple boards
Sensorays driver supports multiple 817s in the same computer.
Real-time outputs
A 16x4 analog crosspoint video switch is used to route any combination of four input channels to external video monitors. Each of the four video outputs can be individually turned on or off, which allows connecting the outputs of multiple 817s to the same monitor.
Text Overlay
An optional single line text caption (up to 80 characters) can be overlaid on the captured images (before compression).
Deinterlacing
Model 817 performs optional deinterlacing of interlaced video to reduce motion artifacts on captured images. The lines of one of the fields of video are recreated from those of another field by using interpolation. This method provides better visual quality compared to simple line doubling. Since the deinterlacing is performed by the firmware running on the DSPs, it slows the capture rate down slightly. A visual example is provided here.
Model 623
PC/104+ to PCI Adapter
Description
Model 623 allows testing PC/104+ boards using an inexpensive desktop PC. The 623 offers significant time savings during product development and production testing by allowing PC/104+ boards to be hot-swapped within a desktop PC.
There is no need for an expensive PC/104+ enclosure and processor to test PC/104+ boards.
Protects computer
Use of the 623 protects the system’s PCI slot from physical wear and reduces the system’s electrical stress from frequent power cycling.
Model 627
Compact PCI to PCI Adapter
Model 627 allows testing CompactPCI boards using an inexpensive desktop PC. The 627 offers significant time savings during product development and production testing by allowing CPCI boards to be hot-swapped within a desktop PC.
There is no need for an expensive CompactPCI enclosure and processor to test CPCI boards.
Protects computer
Use of the 627 protects the system’s PCI slot from physical wear and reduces the system’s electrical stress from frequent power cycling.
Model 327 & 328
PCI to PC/104+ Adapter
Description
Model 327 and 328 allow operating a PCI board from a PC/104+ card stack. They have the unique feature of allowing the selection of important PC/104+ signals using jumper plugs. Hence, the PCI board is not forced to use hardwired settings.
Model 327 alignes the PCI board parallel to the PC/104+ boards while Model 328 places it perpendicular.

CrystalVue VBOND
Sunlight Readable LCD Monitors
Reflection from sunlight destroys contrast in LCD monitors due to the gap of air that exists between the front glass and the actual LCD screen. Because of the severe difference in the consistency between glass and air, plus the fact that air actually conducts light, there are three points of high reflection in a typical LCD with the air gap.
VBOND eliminates the air-gap and in the below example has brought the reflection down from 15% to 2%. The increase in contrast ratio has gone up to 26:1 from 1.85:1. That’s and increase of 1400% in these particular conditions. This difference renders the LCD completely sunlight readable without even increasing power consumption. There are other benefits to VBOND as well.
VBOND prevents dust, moisture, and heat build up by eliminating the airgap between the glass and LCD screen.
VBOND increases protection for the LCD. Should the front glass get hit and break there will be a solid layer of protection between the glass and the LCD screen to protect scratching the liquid crystal screen. VBOND also adds structural integrity to the unit by keeping the most important pieces of the unit solidly sealed together.
