Analog 1394a 1394b USB 2.0 CameraLink GigEThe ImagingSource Video Frame Grabber (model DFG/SV1) supports standard RS-170 and CCIR video formats. The digitized pixels are square. Analog input connectors are RCA and S-video. To attach your camera, a BNC cable and an RCA-to-BNC plug adapter are likely needed. The DFG/SV1 ships with device drivers and a License Key.
The low-cost National Instruments PCI-1405 image acquisition board acquires from standard analog cameras. It supports partial image acquisition with programmable region of interest. Gain and offset are also programmable. The PCI-1405 ships with National Instruments Vision Acquisition Software and a BNC cable.
The National Instruments PCI-1410 image acquisition board offers 8 or 10-bit digitization. It works with standard RS-170 or CCIR cameras and also with double-speed progressive scan cameras. This is a 4-channel frame grabber with channel 0 connecting via BNC. The PCI-1410 works with National Instruments Vision Acquisition Software.
The ImagingSource Video Frame Grabber (model DFG/SV1/PCIe) supports standard RS-170 and CCIR video formats. The digitized pixels are square. Analog input connectors are RCA and S-video. To attach your camera, a BNC cable and an RCA-to-BNC plug adapter are likely needed. The DFG/SV1/PCIe ships with device drivers and a License Key. There is also a low profile version: DFG/SV1/LP/PCIe.
The ImagingSource Video-to-USB converter (model DFG/USB2pro) supports standard RS-170 and CCIR video formats. The digitized pixels are square. Analog input connectors are RCA and S-video. To attach your camera, a BNC cable and an RCA-to-BNC plug adapter are likely needed. Power is from the USB bus.
The DFG/USB2pro ships with a CD rom, but the driver is currently only available on the ImagingSource website (see above link). The PC on which you install these drivers must meet the following minimum requirements:
The ImagingSource Video-to-FireWire converter (model DFG/13941e) supports standard RS-170 and CCIR video formats. The digitized pixels are square. Analog input connectors are RCA and S-video. To attach your camera, a BNC cable and an RCA-to-BNC plug adapter are likely needed.
The Imperx VCE-PRO is a professional, high-speed PCMCIA CardBus video capture card that supports any standard analog video interface. Resolution is up to 780x510 at 30 fps.
Device drivers that ship with the card are directly supported by Durango software.
The Imperx VCE Express is a professional, high-speed ExpressCard/54 digital frame grabber that supports any standard analog video interface. Resolution is up to 780x510 at 30 fps. This card features an intelligent scatter/gather DMA engine for fast efficient use of ExpressCard bandwidth and system memory.
Device drivers that ship with the card are directly supported by Durango software.
For many camera interface options, Durango requires National Instruments Vision Acquisition Software (NI-VAS). NI-VAS may be downloaded for a trial evaluation.
The free CMU 1394 drivers from Carnegie Mellon University are supported by Durango and are compatible with a wide range of digital cameras under Windows XP. We look forward to these drivers being someday available for Windows 7.
This software is included free of charge with all cameras, converters and grabbers manufactured by The Imaging Source.
Operates with all Basler cameras that have an IEEE 1394a, IEEE 1994b or GigE Vision interface. Internal architecture is based on GenICam. Durango does not yet support the Pylon drivers.
