Moritex has launched VideoStore – a compact and portable video capture and storage device for on-site and laboratory applications.
The product enables capture of still images or video clips onto a removable CompactFlash card. It is compatible with both PAL and NTSC, composite or S-video (optional) signals, the makers say. To review the still images or video clips an output encoder enables the product to output data to an external video monitor. Video clips are captured at full NTSC or PAL resolution, at 30 or 25 frames per second (fps) respectively, and stored in Motion-JPEG (Quicktime) compressed format, allowing about three minutes of video to be stored on a 128MB CompactFlash card. Still images are stored in a compressed JPEG format, and over 500 images can be stored on a 128MB CompactFlash card. Storage capacity is limited only by the size of the CompactFlash card used, a 2GB card will hold many thousands of images or about 80 minutes of video, according to the firm.
Tested and approved to CE and FCC regulations the product offers intuitive keypad operation even when wearing protective gloves, it is claimed. For more information contact Moritex.
