composite video or two S video cameras.
Video capture
PC2-COMP Express offers multiplexed acquisition channels capable of
acquiring video from NTSC/RS170 or PAL/CCIR cameras. Digitized images
are transferred using on-board DMA to VGA display
and system memory in real-time without loading the host computer
resources. Special
