Video and Bitmap Image Formats
|
|
The Junior 4 capture board acquires color or monochrome video
images from composite interlaced video signals. The NTSC and
PAL color standards are supported. The monochrome video
acquisition complies with the so-called CCIR (625 lines)
and EIA/RS-170 (525 lines) standards. Acquisition of full
frame (two fields) or single field images is selectable.
Before storing the acquired image into the destination
memory buffer, a pixel format conversion takes place in
real-time. Numerous color or monochrome formats can be
chosen: RGB15, 16, 24, 32, Y8, YUV4:2:2, YUV4:2:0, packed
or planar, and more.

Acquisition
|
|
Before PCI transfer to the PC, the acquired images can be
scaled to any format smaller than the original one, down to
1/12. The downscaling process involves a sophisticated hardware
device, performing an accurate interpolation in both the
horizontal and vertical directions. The image buffer for
a downscaled image is smaller in size, and its transfer
needs less PCI bandwidth.
Moreover, any part of the incoming image can be retained
for further PCI transfer, allowing to define a region of interest.
All desirable adjustments can be applied to the images during
acquisition, such as video contrast, brightness, color
saturation and hue (NTSC only).

Bus Mastering
|
|
The Junior 4 capture board is a PCI bus mastering agent
that directly stores the acquired images into the PC
physical memory without CPU involvement. As a unique
feature, the Junior automatically recovers the scatter-gather
virtual memory mapping to present the data as a regular
bitmap image in a user allocated memory buffer.

|
Driver Interoperability
|
|
Thanks to its basic architecture, Junior 4 may be operated
with most of the Conexant® Bt878/CN878A based drivers.
