Imaging system features dual processors
Based on Windows NT, the VMEvision imaging system comes with two 233-MHz Pentium or Pentium II processors with 512 kbytes of cache, a four-channel frame grabber, 64-bit BLT graphics, and up to 256 Mbytes of main memory. It also provides two 10/100-Mbit/s Ethernet ports, a 9.1-Gbyte SCSI hard drive, an LS-120 floppy drive, and a library of imaging, graphics, and system-control functions, all for $9995. Both Pentium processors work concurrently on compute-intensive graphics and imaging tasks. The system`s imaging library is coded for the Pentium`s MMX extensions, which includes instructions for accelerating imaging and graphics operations.
