nNovia to Launch DVR and DV Products at WEVA EXPO
August 11, 2003
San Jose CA - nNovia Inc., OEM manufacturer of professional Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) and other complimentary DV products, will launch a new series of products under its own brand name.
The new nNovia product line will address needs of professional video and broadcast, CCTV, AV presentation, and general consumer markets.
nNovia is ready to ship three products and will demonstrate them later this
month in Booth #203 of WEVA's Wedding & Event Video Expo at Bally’s Las Vegas.
These products are QuickCapture (pictured), a wearable or camera-mounted IEEE-1394 DV-to-disk drive recorder; FireSwitch, a "glitch-free" asynchronous, IEEE-1394 DV 4x1 switcher; and SmartHub, a user-selectable 6-port IEEE-1394 configurable hub/router.
The company's initial DVR products are powered by nNovia's patent-pending technology, the SSP-100. It is the first standalone multi-stream processor designed specifically for managing real time, high bandwidth signals in and out of digital mass storage devices for DVR applications. The extremely small SSP-100, about the size of a business card, brings a number of advantages to the nNovia product line.
For instance, the need for high-power, centralized microprocessors and operating systems is eliminated, reducing overall product cost, the manufacturer describes. The technology is based on a combination of proprietary hardware and firmware for greatly improved reliability over conventional PC-based architectures. Multiple SSPs can be used in parallel for higher bandwidth applications or for products that require a large number of independent video streams. The SSP-100 also enhances flexibility by interfacing with many I/O standards and "conforming" to native formats and signal environments.
