Off-Line Peripherals for Multiple Camera-Computer Interfaces
P.T. Cahill, Eugene Ornstein, R. Bietry · IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science · 1976
A solution to the problem of data acquisition and processing from multiple cameras via a signle computer is presented and discussed. Off-line disc systems or video tape peripherals provide greater speed of data collection, increase the total throughput of the camera-computer system, and provide backup in case of computer breakdown. They increase the efficiency of a single computer, thus minimizing the cost of data acquisition and analysis.
