Specification:
The new DS-4004H from Kane Computing is the very first implementation of the new H.264 / MPEG4-AVC video compression standard. It uses four media processors, each with its own video input, VIP (video input processor), memory and PCI interface. The heavily optimized H.264 / MPEG4-AVC codec runs on each processor. The codec yields higher picture quality and about 40% lower bit rate than is possible with MPEG4-ASP, and even greater improvements when compared to MPEG4-SP or MPEG2. The DS-4004H package also includes a high performance PC H.264 decoder for Windows.
Applications and Uses:
The DS-4004H COTS board can be integrated into a number of security and surveillance products such as Digital Recorders running under a variety of Operating Systems including Linux, XP, Win2K, WinME (decoder only) and Win98 (decoder only). An optional Board Support Package is available with SDK for Encoder, Decoder and Client-Server Networking applications, including example source code to help OEMs develop their products quickly.
