Anchor Bay Technologies Unveils The DVDO iScan HD High-Resolution Video Scaling Engine

29-Jan-04

Anchor Bay Technologies, Inc. introduces the all-new DVDOÆ iScan HD, the company's first comprehensive audio/video processing hub.Home theater enthusiasts are presented with many challenges when displaying an image that was originally produced in one resolution and aspect ratio, stored and transmitted in another, and ultimately displayed in a third. The new iScan HD is a video processor that produces an optimized image in a wide range of resolutions, aspect ratios, and refresh rates, independent of the input format. When using the iScan HD, a projector or display device is not forced to crop, distort, or further process the image in order to display it. The iScan HD can generate an output that exactly matches the native resolution of virtually any LCD or DLP projector, as well as plasma displays and CRTs, producing the clearest, crispest picture possible.The iScan HD incorporates Anchor Bay Technology's new Precision Video Scaling technology, and incorporates other new digital video and audio technologies such as Automatic Chroma Upsampling Error Correction (AutoCUE-C) and Precision AV Lipsync.In addition to providing enhanced picture quality, the iScan HD acts as a hub for all AV source devices. It accepts up to eight discrete video and 4 digital audio inputs, with 2 video and 2 audio outputs. This allows the connection of DVD players, satellite receivers, DTV receivers, digital video recorders, video game consoles, VCRs, Laser Disc players, and PC video directly to the iScan HD, which delivers near-high-definition quality video to virtually all display types, while also handling switching and synchronization of digital audio streams.The iScan HD will be available for volume shipment to qualified DVDO Resellers in Q1 2004.For more information on DVDO, please visit www.DVDO.com.
