I received some information from a company in Quebec that makes a couple of IBM PC compatible boards for image processing. The more interesting board, the "Occulus 200," is a 512 by 512 pixel eight bit frame store, with a seven bit frame grabber (digitizer), and a video out for a monochrome monitor. The cost is roughly $2K. For 24 bit color, three boards (and three slots) would be needed. There doesn't seem to any provision for 8 bit color. There are some interesting software options, in the $500 - $1500 range, including an image of character data to ascii file converter. They don't give error rates or processing times. The company is CORECO, Inc. Has anyone purchased one of these boards, and have any experience or comments about using them? Bob Hummel (hummel@nyu.ARPA) (...ihpn4!cmcl2!csd2!hummel)
