HD Video Acquisition and Compression Board suits low-power PCs.

Press Release Summary:




Model LT-102-PCIE is PCI Express board that captures video from analog and digital HD and SD video sources including DVI, RGB, component, S-video, and composite. It also functions as HD compression coprocessor for video supplied by host via PCI Express bus. Able to compress 30 fps at 1080p, board supports resolutions up to 1080p60 and outputs compressed video within milliseconds of acquisition. Drivers for Windows XP/Vista/7 and Linux are included and unit also supports 32- and 64-bit OSs.



Original Press Release:



Gaillac, France 2010 Enciris Technologies Announces the LT-102-PCIE, a PCI Express Video Acquisition and Compression Board.



As HD video proliferates through the medical, surveillance, internet, broadcasting, videoconferencing markets it has become increasingly important to find a solution for handling the very large amounts of HD video data. Video compression is a necessity for both storage and transmission issues. Enciris Technologies has recently introduced a number of low cost PCI, and USB hardware products that address these problems.

Enciris Technologies' LT-102-PCIE is the newest addition to its family of high performance real time true HD acquisition and compression boards. The LT-102-PCIE alleviates your PC's CPU by transferring the massive computational requirements of HD compression to a specialised dedicated onboard processor. The LT-102-PCIE now allows high quality HD video acquisition and compression to be performed on even low power PCs and embedded CPUs allowing customers to meet their green initiatives.

The LT-102-PCIE can capture video from both analog and digital HD and SD video sources including DVI, RGB, component, S-video and composite. An HD/SD-SDI option is also available. Additionally, the LT-102-PCIE can function as a HD compression coprocessor for video supplied by the host via PCI Express bus.

At 1080p the LT-102-PCIE can compress 30 frames per second without using any host CPU resources. All standard HDTV resolution are supported including the acquisition of 1080p60. The LT-102-PCIE can simultaneously acquire uncompressed video for preview purposes or occasional snapshots. Also designed for low latency applications, the LT-102-PCIE outputs compressed video within only a few milliseconds of acquisition.

Currently, the LT-102-PCIE will compress to HD Windows Media Video (WMV/ VC-1) up to advanced profile level 3 with resolutions from 176x144 to 2048x2048 pixels. As the LT-102-PCIE has a reconfigurable processing core the LT-102-PCIE can be configured for other compression formats as we make them available. An H.264 core will be released in the near future.

Drivers for Windows XP/Vista/7 and Linux are included. Both 32 and 64-bit operating systems are supported. Under Windows, DirectShow is fully supported. A cross platform SDK is also available for Windows and Linux application development. Mac OS X support is also available.

The LT-102-PCIE is ideally suited for OEMs and system integrators and measures 100mm x 120mm.

Enciris Technologies, headquartered in Gaillac, France, is a leader in HD compression hardware and IP. For additional information and pricing please visit our website www.enciris.com/en/hwhome.php or contact us directly at info@enciris.com.
