FOLSOM IMAGE PRO
The Folsom ImagePRO is a powerful all-in-one
signal processor that accepts a wide range of
video input signals and process them into a
number of different signal formats to meet the
video requirements of virtually any application.
Incorporating Folsom’s Athena proprietary high performance image processing technology, the ImagePRO is available in
three versions—ImagePRO, ImagePRO-SDI and the fully-loaded ImagePRO-HD.
All units are high performance video scalers, scan converters, switchers and transcoders in one. The ImagePRO is the ideal
solution for converting RGB, HDTV, component, S-Video, composite (NTSC, PAL and SECAM), DVI, SDI and HD/SDI into a
user-selectable video format. ImagePRO supports a wide variety of analog and digital output formats including broadcast
and VESA standards along with many native plasma formats. ImagePRO users may also create custom output formats to
support unique display requirements. The ImagePRO
line has an advantaged feature set that includes:
universal inputs, aspect ratio conversion, memory
presets, test patterns, vertical lock (Genlock), picture
adjustments, motion adaptive de-interlacing, and 3:2
and 2:2 pulldown detection to name a few.
FEATURES
High performance image processing
technology provides the highest possible
image quality while minimizing processing
delays. The architecture supports 1:1 video
sampling and processes video at 10-bits per
color channel to maintain image fidelity.
Proprietary horizontal and vertical filtering
techniques are used to provide crisp, clean
images to support both upconversion and
downconversion operations.
The Athena scaler also supports special
functions such as continuous real-time pan
and zoom operations, a wide variety of
frame locking options (to eliminate motion
artifacts) and adjustable filtering modes.
Three universal inputs accept RGBHV, RGBS
or RGsB computer video, component video
(SD or HDTV), composite or S-Video with
loop-through.
Four video outputs; (2) RGB or component
video, (1) composite video, and (1) S-video
User-defined aspect ratio conversion and
adjustments
Flexible pan and zoom
Freeze
Motion Adaptive and Field to Frame
de-interlacing modes
10-Bit processing provides improved signal-
to-noise ratio and preserves dynamic range
to improve image fidelity. This is especially
apparent in dark regions and areas of
smooth, slightly varying tonal value.
3:2 pulldown detection for NTSC and 2:2 film
detection for PAL video sources.
Decodes NTSC, PAL, and SECAM.
RS-232 and Ethernet connection (with
TCP/IP) for real-time remote control.
Encodes NTSC and PAL.
Genlock, H/V Lock and VLock.
Executive mode: protects system
configuration settings during use.
64 independent memory (sizing, centering,
detail, contrast, brightness info presets.
Image Pro-SDI Step-up Features
SDI input and output.
Motion adaptive de-interlacing for HDTV
inputs.
Logo image capture and recall feature.
Dissolve to/from stored logo.
Image Pro-HD Step-up Features
HD/SDI input and output
DVI-D output
DVI-I connectors support both universal
analog and DVI input with loop-through on
