- Maynard, MA -- April 17, 1992 -- Following the success of its Md series of
- high resolution display boards for the Apple Macintosh, DOME imaging
- systems has now brought this powerful architecture to EISA-based PCs.
- Early shipments of this product have been to PACs, teleradiology and other
- high-end medical imaging applications.
-
- Designed to meet the display and processing requirements of advanced
- graphics and image processing applications, the Md/EISA offers a number of
- extremely powerful hardware features that provide unparalleled performance
- in a variety of demanding and complex imaging applications. The Md/EISA
- produces an exceptionally high quality gray scale or color display at a
- wide variety of resolutions ranging up to 1600 by 1200 pixels on both
- portrait and landscape monitors. It can display up to 256 shades of gray
- or colors simultaneously and features a 4-bit per pixel, 16 color overlay
- plane.
-
- The capabilities of the Md/EISA hardware go well beyond those of a standard
- display card. The Md/EISA excels at handling very large amounts of image
- data, as well as gray scale images that are deeper than 8 bits, including
- 10, 12 and 16-bit images. It accomplishes this by incorporating and
- integrating a powerful set of hardware features, including a large
- off-screen memory buffer (up to 68 Mbytes), a high speed image copy
- accelerator, and a special 16-bit look-up table. With this hardware, the
- Md/EISA boards can update and process images on the screen much faster
- than the PC's processor. This allows applications to perform such
- demanding tasks as real-time cine animation of sequential images, panning
- and scrolling of arbitrarily large images, and contrast and brightness
- adjustments on gray scale images up to 16 bits deep. The Md/EISA boards
- also feature the Texas Instruments 34020 graphics system processor with an
- optional TI 34082 floating point coprocessor.
-
- DOME provides an extensive graphics and image processing library at no
- extra cost. This library lets applications take full advantage of the
- Md/EISA board's special features including the copy accelerator, the
- 16-bit look-up table and the TI 34020 and 34082 processors. It includes a
- wide variety of graphics primitives and image processing routines, as well
- as sample source code and full documentation.
-
- DOME imaging systems is the leading provider of innovative imaging
- solutions, meeting customers' needs with quality software and hardware
- products. DOME values its customers and vendor relationships and is
- committed to creating a challenging growth environment for its employees.
- DOME is a privately held corporation, incorporated in 1989 and located in
- Maynard, MA.
