micro audio and video recorder avr series - Model avr-1

Micro Audio and Video Recorder able to record Minimum 40 minutes on 1 GB compact flash card

The Micro Audio and Video Recorder AVR-1 records 1 channel of video and 1 channel of audio information on a regular compact flash card. The recorder has extremely small size (56x54x10 mm), even less than a regular cigarette pack. The extremely low power consumption makes it perfect for mobile applications. The recorder supports PAL and NTSC formats, has maximum resolution 704x288 (PAL) or 704x240 (NTSC) and features wide range of software options such as motion detector, VAS, turning of audio and video recording parameters. Since the recorder does not have an embed power source, so it does not depend on the battery resource. And the recorder can operate as long as external power source is on or as there is enough memory space. This makes the recorder interesting for installation in cars, bikes, robots and other autonomous vehicles which have their own battery but are limited with space and power for big systems. The internal compression format is Wavelet. The output file is in *.avi format. At decoding a user can select a codec and setup its parameters. Date/time stamp and watermark protection makes the recorder useful for evidence purposes.
