Data Translation Slashes Prices on PCI Imaging Frame Grabbers

„The DT3120 is now priced at $199. It is a frame grabber that can acquire a standard monochrome, composite color, or S-video color image from a single camera. Its PCI bus and Scatter/Gather architecture enables it to handle large amounts of image data quickly and effectively, and with no CPU intervention. The DT3120 is an ideal solution for security applications, as well as scientific and general-purpose imaging.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nThe DT3130 Series contain the functionality of up to three frame grabbers on one half-size PCI board. Each handles monochrome, composite color, or S-video color input sources. These frame grabbers provide programmable strobe outputs for precise camera control. The DT3130 Series is best suited for applications requiring simultaneous image acquisition from multiple sources. Data Translation offers an isolated version of each board in the series. The DT3131, with three muxed inputs, is priced at $495; DT3131-ISO is priced at $525; the DT3132, with six muxed inputs, is priced at $595; the DT3132-ISO is priced at $625; the DT3133, with nine muxed inputs, is priced at $695 and the DT3133-ISO is priced at $725.\r\n
