Video Toolbox™ is the easiest way to display
and capture video on your computer; desktop or laptop. Save a single
image, a movie, a time lapse sequence, or capture the image directly
into your favorite image-editing software for enhancement or annotation.
Print or e-mail images without leaving the program.
Video Toolbox™ provides the tools you need to produce high quality
images for live display or capture. Interactively adjust brightness,
contrast and color settings. Zoom-in up to 4x without pixelation. Make
precision measurements directly on the live image. Add labels, markers,
even freehand drawings right on the live image.
Video Tools™ are plug-ins which add even more capability to Video
ToolBox™. Plug-ins are available for image enhancement and automation.
You can even write your own Video Tools.
Video ToolBox works with most USB, USB 2.0 and FireWire cameras which
use DirectX WDM drivers. For analog video cameras, ask about our USB VideoLink adapters which put full-speed video into any computer
including laptops.

Video ToolBox Plug-ins:
Plug-ins add live effects to Video ToolBox.
Zarbeco offers the following plug-ins:
FocusLockdepth-of-focus enhancement
FocusLock performs
real-time focus enhancement by monitoring the video image and capturing
every portion of the image which is in focus. All you do is turn the
focus knob; FocusLock monitors the video image and captures the in-focus
portions. Finally, FocusLock returns an image which is entirely in
focus.
Particles, halftone dots, cell colonies; automatically measure the size
and distribution with the Particle Analyzer plug-in for Video ToolBox.
This real-time analysis plug-in continuously measures the coverage of
the particles within the live image. Press the measure button to
capture the image, count and measure each particle. Print a
summary report with the image and statistical information, or a full
report with the size of every particle.
Video Averager performs continuous frame
averaging to enhance images degraded by noise. Select up to 32
frame averaging to produce a clearer image in low-light conditions.
Video Averager also adds control over the brightness, contrast and gain
beyond that available with the camera and also provides color inversion
to help bring out details in low-contrast images.
Video ToolBox makes it simple to turn your
ideas into effects. Our developer's kit provides the information
you need to quickly write your own Video ToolBox plug-in in whatever
programming language you choose.
