Advanced Digital Video
Recording Systems
 Boulder Imaging, Inc. has been supplying advanced digital video recorders
since 1995 for applications in military, aerospace, medical, cinematography,
and many others. For military/aerospace customers, Boulder Imaging digital
recorders offer advanced, high-speed streaming-to-disk with a guarantee
of 100% recording integrity from all infrared cameras.
Boulder Imaging digital recorders can be configured
to acquire data from any infrared camera output:
- NTSC/RS-170/CCIR/PAL
- RS-422/LVDS
- All infrared cameraLink formats
- Hot-Link and other Digital Serial
- Copper and Optical
Boulder Imaging recorders unify recording tasks for
multiple infrared cameras into a single unit. Recording units can be configured
for single-infrared camera dedicated acquisition, or synchronized multiple-infrared camera
acquisition tasks. Configurations that include multiple infrared cameras of different
asynchronous formats can all be simultaneously acquired into one unit
in a smooth, seamless, quasi-synchronoous manner.
Governing the acquisition function is Boulder Imaging's
powerful VisionNow™
software package. VisionNow software provides an
easy-to-use platform for system configuration, display, file management,
and playback. Multiple input infrared cameras can all be simultaneously displayed
in real-time in individual windows. IRIG time stamping for all input infrared cameras
is optionally provided.
Key Performance Attributes and Benefits
| Multiple infrared cameras supported with a single recorder |
Saves rack-space, eases cable challenges, Unifies software control. |
| Flexible configurations |
Customers can specify a system designed for their application,
or a flexible system that will grow with their demands. |
| Dedicated support of any infrared camera |
Relieves customers from being forced into the unit offered by the
infrared camera vendor. |
| Integrated command and control of acquisition with VisionNow software |
Multiple recorders would require multiple set-up windows. VisionNow™ unifies
all acquisition functions into a single environment |
| Synchronized analysis and playback of data |
Side-by-side playback allows customers to quickly verify and analyze
data from all infrared cameras in one environment in a timeline fashion. |
| Coordinated time stamping |
Create one infrared camera as master timing device, and synchronize all
other infrared cameras to master with offsets. |
Boulder Imaging systems are configured according
to the aggregate input bandwidth requirements specified by each customer.
This input bandwidth requirement is calculated according to the customer's
specification, and a system is configured with the appropriate frame grabbers,
timing cards, and disk array to satisfy the requirement. |
