I wrote some in-line machine code in Turbo Pascal 3.1 to run their memory-resident software via interrupts (to do pattern-recognition on real-time images) but it comes with a user-friendly "canned" program. I have found them to be helpful and responsive, and recommend them. Check with them about what software is included: Chorus Data Systems 6 Continental Blvd. Merrimack, NH 03054 (603) 424-2900 [they have an 800 #, call 800 information] From their User's Guide: "Any object that can be viewed with a standard video camera or recorder can be captured as high resolution pictures on your PC." ----------------------------------------------------------------- "Si vis pacem, para bellum" -- Vegetius ----------------------------------------------------------------- mike@lll-lcc.arpa | ... ucbvax!lll-crg!lll-lcc!mike -----------------------------------------------------------------
