RodeoGRANDE builds on the proven foundation of our Rodeo and RodeoPLUS DVRs, delivering a major leap in high-performance RAW video recording.
Its FPGA-based RAW video recording engine reliably captures long sequences of high-bandwidth video from multiple cameras, through either coaxial or fiber-optic CoaXPress video connections. RodeoGRANDE takes synchronized, multi-camera video recording to the next level – recording two of today’s fastest CoaXPress video cameras – at over 4GByte/sec each – with zero dropped frames! Whether you’re recording video for scientific research, cinematic performance capture or athlete analysis, RodeoGRANDE ensures you record every frame, every time.
RodeoGRANDE is our first DVR to support CoaXPress-over-Fiber connections, enabling long-distance, high-bandwidth links to faraway cameras without the need for 3rd-party fiber extenders. Using industry-standard optical transceivers, CXPoF connections can reach as far as 40km (or longer with repeaters!). This helps when cameras need to be placed far from the DVRs in either remote environments (sports stadiums), or hazardous locations (space launch facilities, missile test ranges).
RodeoGRANDE DVRs fit conveniently in standard 19″ equipment racks, taking up just 2U of height and as little as 18″ depth. Total weight is under 20lbs and power consumption is only 85W, making mobile system configurations possible via portable rack enclosures. Compared to alternative CoaXPress video recording solutions built around large server-grade PCs, RodeoGRANDE DVRs significantly minimize size, weight and power without sacrificing performance or capabilities.
Timing can be everything when it comes to video analytics. Understanding the precise time when a frame is captured allows a better correlation of imagery to other data sources, such as telemetry systems, environmental sensors, or other DVR systems in other locations. RodeoGRANDE includes IRIG-B (AM and DC) and SMPTE LTC timecode inputs as a standard feature, making it easy to synchronize with many formats of timing signals found in aerospace test facilities and video production studios. As well, an optional high-accuracy GNSS receiver can be installed, for synchronization with not only GPS, but other international satellite navigation systems. For mobile capture applications in vehicles or aircraft, up to 20Hz position data can be logged with video recordings .
