The DVMB-554E embedded digital video motherboard with integrated PCIe video capture provides the small footprint required for DVR solutions. The Intel core duo processor offers cool thermal performance, while providing high-power computing. The DVMB-554 is optimized for processor-intensive video analysis and object tracking applications. PCIe support delivers generous bandwidth, more than enough to pump four channels of integrated video capture at D1 resolution, up to 120/100 frame per second. A complete SDK with demonstration programs helped the software company customize its application for this new platform.

The software company took our hardware platform and added their software to provide advanced video functions like automated PTZ tracking, unattended operation and multi-camera associated tracking. The Mini-ITX form factor (170 x 170 mm) easily accommodates the unit into the limited spaces required by POS-DVR, ATM-DVR, video analysis boxes for IVS, or hybrid DVR platforms. Compared with traditional PCs, specific functions like a low power processor, compact size, and on board video can benefit the system integrator for vertically oriented video applications.
