Each video input delivers simultaneously a raw and compressed video stream. This unique feature allows to simultaneously capture and to preview each video input. The compressed images can be stored on the hard disc or transferred by the network while the uncompressed images can be immediately displayed or can be used for video analytics. Both streams are independently configurable: frame rate control, resolution control, overlay, masking features can be set autonomously.
The Picolo V16 H.264 is a PCI Express 1-lane board and implements, for system integration, 32 general-purpose I/O lines and a pass-through buffered video output with cascade capability.
To operate the Picolo V16 H.264, DirectShow filters interfaces for Windows are provided.
