Ultra-fast multiple-channel video capture board Video Capture Boards: Picolo Alert
Ultra-fast multiple-channel video capture boards

Equipped with the Euresys video-surveillance FPGA, they are able to acquire images from up to sixteen independent cameras with a total digitizing power of 200 / 240 fps constantly available. The user is free to share this digitizing power between the sixteen channels, according to the requirements of the application.

Direct show Capture board for video-surveillance   Picolo series general features
  16 video inputs - 200 / 240 fps constantly available
  Proprietary video-surveillance FPGA
  - Simultaneous capture and preview functions
  Form factors: Conventional PCI
  64 / 32 bits, 66 / 33 MHz, 3V or 5V signaling
  PCI Express Full-height, half-length, x1
  Software support: - DirectShow filters
- MultiCam drivers for Microsoft Windows® and Linux
Sixteen video inputs and 200 / 240 fps constantly available

As a unique feature, the Alert offers the ability to share a total digitizing power of 200 / 240 fields per second (100 / 120 ips) among the sixteen video channels without switching delay. With the dedicated Euresys video-surveillance FPGA, this high acquisition rate is always fully available independently of the camera synchronization type.
