Foresight Imaging

Foresight Imaging offers high-end frame grabbers for applications such as medical imaging, radar, voyage data recorder systems and real-time video streaming for simulation training in defence and civil applications. They specialise in the acquisition of analogue signals from non-standard video sources (It goes without saying that standard sources are no problem too!)

AccuStream 170 - 170 MHz Frame Grabber & Video Streamer
The AccuStream Series of frame grabbers and video streamers is the most advanced, most versatile series of products that Foresight Imaging has ever introduced. The extreme performance is due to the 64 bit, 66 MHz PCI bus design, delivering sustained performance to system memory of over 250 MB/second. In addition to 64 bit, 66 MHz PCI, AccuStream 170 is also compatible with the 32 bit PCI bus, PCI-X, 3.3 volt slots, and 5.0 volt slots. The first member of the AccuStream Series, the AccuStream 170, is ideal for RGB colour, YPbPr, DVI (digital visual interface), HDTV, and monochrome applications such as high-resolution display transmission and monitoring. Applications include:
  • Maritime navigation systems
  • Military imaging
  • Medical Imaging
  • Display monitoring
  • Distance learning
I-Series
Foresight also offer the I-Series, an ideal cost effective alternative if your application doesn't require all the features of the Accustream. There are colour models and with pixel rates between 25MHz and 200MHz, and monochrome with pixel rates between 50MHz and 75MHz.
