Stereo Video Digitizer
This is actually my university
thesis project. The stereo video digitizer will accept video input from
2 PAL CCD video camera. It digitizes the video and display both the video
sources on a PC monitor. My digitizer support only greyscale video.
Features:
-
Interfaced to a PC through the PC parallel port, using the EPP (IEEE1284)
protocol.
-
Dual video input channels
-
Video would be captured at the rate of 5 frames per second
-
320x312 resolution. 8 bits/pixel grey-scale.
-
Only odd field of a video frame is digitized.
-
Software (written using Visual C++ ) is used for controlling the
board, and displaying the video on a PC screen.
-
Utilises the Microsoft Direct X 6.1 library for optimum video display perforamance
on PC
