The VigraVision IV PMC Module is a high-performance real-time image processing and video capture solution that consolidates image acquisition, processing, and display functions onto a single PCI Mezzanine Card. Built on reconfigurable FPGA architecture, it processes data at video frame rates without burdening the system bus, delivering scalable real-time performance for integration into ruggedized systems. The unified design eliminates the need for multiple boards and separate video output hardware while supporting dynamic reconfiguration of processing functions to meet customer-specific requirements.
