The SVS-8 standalone model or SVS-8 SAM is designed for applications where a truly universal streaming network video decoder is required to drive digital video recorders, video monitors and other devices that accept a
composite video signal.
A typical
composite video signal has a bandwidth of approximately 4.5 MHz.
A possible solution being explored by researchers at Light Blue Optics, Cambridge, UK, has been to convert a standard
composite video signal into a high-quality 2-D holographic video, in real-time.
Video capture hardware generally expects a composite video signal. Therefore, the computer video signal sent from a presentation computer cannot be directly encoded as part of a video stream.
A set of standard PCs with video capture cards to capture and encode a composite video signal may be the best initial solution.
Using PRISM WLAN technology, Sharp original MAC technology and a high performance MPEG2 encoder/decoder to handle compressed audio and video, the AN-SS700 transmitter is connected to a VCR, DVD player or satellite tuner by
composite video signal. The video pictures received by the ANSS700 are wirelessly transmitted as digital signals and viewed remotely on the LCD TV connected to the receiver unit.
PlanetCam's output is a standard NTSC
composite video signal, which can be viewed or recorded on a user-supplied monitor or videocassette recorder (VCR).
To date, the 1-volt
composite video signal over coaxial cable has been the norm.
Extending Techwell's TW2800 family of security ICs, the pin- to-pin compatible TW2815 and TW2816 four channel video decoders convert analog
composite video signals to digital component YCbCR data for standalone and PC-based DVR security applications.
The company also announced the availability of a reference design kit, the CVM 180K, which is compatible with both high-resolution component and lower resolution
composite video signals. This allows portable electronics OEMs to integrate the CVM 180K in display-enabled applications that use either the emerging component standard or the older composite standard.
