Video encoder/decoder for challenging applications

The CNVETX1 video encoder/decoder from UK-based ComNet Europe is designed for those applications suffering or likely to experience extreme temperatures, vibration, shock or irregular voltage and where humidity with condensation are present, says the company. The all-new CNVETX1 is a single channel video encoder/decoder which has been ‘industrially hardened’ for use in the most extreme operating environments.

The CNVETX1 video encoder/decoder from UK-based 30 ComNet Europe is designed for those applications suffering or likely to experience extreme temperatures, vibration, shock or irregular voltage and where humidity with condensation are present, says the company.

The all-new CNVETX1 is a single channel video encoder/decoder which has been ‘industrially hardened’ for use in the most extreme operating environments. It accepts an incoming baseband video signal with duplex audio and serial data for camera PTZ control. It encodes this information to H.264, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, or MJPEG video compression standards and inserts it onto an Ethernet network.

It can be user-configured as an encoder or decoder, or the decoding may be carried out with the decoding software supplied. It is operable as a PoE (IEEE 802.3aF) powered device or from any 12V dc source and also contains ComNet IVS software for simultaneous video streaming and onboard content management.

    The DRIVE C2X provides a comprehensive, Europe-wide assessment of cooperative systems through field operational tests, and is to present its results on 16 and 17 July in Berlin. The test results are the last step in the preparation for the roll-out of cooperative systems in Europe. During the three and a half years of the project, more than 750 drivers tested eight safety-related functions of cooperative functions all over Europe. The operational tests took place in seven test sites in Finland, France, G

    Phil Harris, Thales UK, on how fused sensor data can significantly enhance GNSS-based positioning systems' performance in urban areas. Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-based positioning is unique among available positioning technology due to its universal coverage and low equipment cost. By measuring the distances between an unknown position (such as a vehicle), and at least three known positions (GPS satellites), the unknown position can be calculated in three dimensions (latitude, longitude, and
