Matrox Morphis QxT

Matrox Morphis QxT is a cost-effective, PCIe-compatible imaging board, capable
of acquiring standard, monochrome/color, analog video. Matrox Morphis QxT
supports simultaneous acquisition from up to 16 different video sources, and
optionally supports live MPEG-4 compression of all video streams. Video images
can be formatted in real-time during capture, including adding an overlay, before
being sent to the Host. An overlay can be added before images are sent for
compression.
The following diagram illustrates the data flow of the Matrox Morphis QxT board.
