The thesis goes into depth describing the system requirements, design and implementation of a Video Data Acquisition and Replay (VIDAR). VIDAR allows video signals to be fed into a hardware system, downloaded onto a computer, and outputted onto a video system such as a television.application/pdfengComputer organizationData transmission systemsDigital videoUSB (Computer bus)MATLABSoftware engineeringVideo compressionMultimedia systemsSoftware design and implementation of a video data acquisition and replay systemThesis
