  • HIGHEST VIDEO QUALITY

  • HIGH-PERFORMANCE
 
Get the highest image quality with Winnov's Elastic Frame Buffer architecture
     

Winnov's Videum Quattro provides you with the highest quality available in the industry. Without Frame Buffering, some captured pixels may be lost if the PCI bus is not ready to accept each full frame as it is digitized. With Winnov's unique frame buffer architecture, the Videum Quattro uses an elastic buffer to store the pixels on-board for optimum use of the PCI bus. With the Videum Duo and Quattro, you reliably capture multiple 640x480 video streams without dropping pixels.
