Full support for Nvidia GPUDirect for Video and AMD DirectGMA

KAYA Instruments – vendor  of state-of-the-art products and cutting edge solutions in the Machine Vision and Broadcast industries – gladly announces the following.

All the frame grabbers made by KAYA Instruments provide full support for NVidia GPUDirect for Video and AMD DirectGMA in order to do image acquisition and processing with any graphics processing units.

With conventional approach, video data is copied three times in the system memory, while with Nvidia GPUDirect the data copy performed only twice (frame grabber to system memory and system memory to GPU memory).

AMD DirectGMA provides high-speed Peer-to-Peer DMA transfers between the memories of 2 GPUs or between the memories of the GPU and the FPGA. DirectGMA for Video is optimized for the likely best performance in order to exchange data between frame grabbers and GPUs with direct video streaming from Frame grabber to GPU, totally avoiding data copies to/from system memory.

In case of proper usage of the NVIDIA Direct-for-Video and AMD DirectGMA for Video protocols, KAYA Instruments frame grabbers can achieve the currently available highest-end performance and the highest-speed real time processing with the possible lowest latency.
