mvDELTA/mvDELTAe

mvDELTAe - Low-cost multistandard frame grabber

Low-cost multistandard frame grabber
Video inputs: 4x CVBS/gray or (only Cinch version) 3x CVBS and 1x Y/C
Fast channel switching
PCI and PCI Express®

The mvDELTA frame grabber for the PCI-bus and PCI Express®-bus is the most compact and cost-effective MATRIX VISION product solution to date. Nonetheless, the quality and functionality of this board make it an ideal solution for a variety of visualization and image processing tasks. The cross-product software port facilitates quick transition to higher-performance frame grabbers from MATRIX VISION for applications that are more demanding on the board's specification.
