| The Picolo V16 H.264 is an outstanding video capture board featuring real-time H.264 on board compression for 16 video channels with audio capability. Each video input delivers simultaneously a raw and compressed video stream. Both streams are independently configurable.
16 Real-Time Video Inputs
400/480 ips at full resolution (25/30 ips x 16)
An independently programmable frame rate and acquisition parameters for each of the 16 video inputs
- Contrast, brightness and saturation controls available
- Video presence detection
- Overlay caption text and masking regions
H.264 On-Board Compression
- H.264 (MPEG-4 Part 10) Base Profile (Level 3.1)
- A compression standard offering high image quality on top of low bit rate and low storage requirement
Simultaneous and independent H.264 compressed and raw image transfer leading to a total of 32 video output streams! Subject to PC bus available bandwidth.
