  1. Transform SCN Sample, Compress, Network Transporting computer imagery over IP networks

  2. Bringing information to the display • Network • Client applications running locally on the Argus controller, retrieving data from remote servers over the network • Web-based: browsers running on Argus, displaying applications from remote web-servers • Remote sessions: TSE, X11 • Screen scraping: Cottus, VNC • Direct input – traditional solution • Video and RGB framegrabbers

  3. Web server DB server Win TSE X server Linux WS Win WS X11 RDP HTTP The traditional solution VNC Cottus IP network TCP AV cabling Video and RGB sources Distribution and switching

  4. Web server DB server Win TSE X server Linux WS Win WS X11 RDP HTTP Introducing streaming video… VNC Cottus IP network TCP AV cabling Video and RGB sources Add video encoders… Distribution and switching

  5. Web server DB server Win TSE X server Linux WS Win WS X11 RDP HTTP Introducing streaming video… VNC Cottus IP network TCP AV cabling Video and RGB sources Add video encoders… Distribution and switching Add universal decoders… Remove DAs and switchers…

  6. Web server Win TSE X server Linux WS Win WS X11 RDP HTTP Let’s do the same for computer images VNC Cottus IP network TCP AV cabling Video and RGB sources Distribution and switching

  7. Web server DB server Win TSE X server Linux WS Win WS X11 RDP HTTP Let’s do the same for computer images VNC Cottus IP network TCP Video and RGB sources Remove DAs and switchers…

  8. Web server DB server Win TSE X server Linux WS Win WS X11 RDP HTTP Let’s do the same for computer images VNC Cottus IP network TCP Video and RGB sources Remove DAs and switchers… Add graphical encoders… Use universal decoders …

  9. My PC DVI DVI Ethernet LAN Power How to use it? My PC IP network Want to connect a PC over the LAN? Put a universal decoder card in the Argus/Hydra Install a TransForm SCN at the PC Hook it up to the network Connect it in between the PC and its monitor on analog or digital DVI Configure it from any PC on the network with a standard Web browser You’re up and running !

  10. SCN – Feature Highlights • Up to 1600x1200 @ 60Hz DVI and RGB input • Unicast and Multicast streaming • Hardware Decoding on Streaming Video Card • One stream per card • USB Keyboard and Mouse control • Web interface • Apollo 1.8 SR1 • PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse control as an option (SSR required) • Software Decoder with recording capabilities • This component is still in alpha phase • Availability: see roadmap presentation. • Not an KVM product for server management

  11. SCN - Benefits Technical • Hardware solution: no need to install/maintain drivers • The Compression algorithm guarantees picture integrity. • In I frame only lossless compression mode, each output frame is an exact copy of one input frame • Applicable for legacy systems • Separate networks can be used (secure applications) • No performance repercussions on host system (unlike software-based solutions)

  12. SCN – Benefits cont’d Deployment cost • No more need for separate AV distribution and switching equipment • Simplified cabling • Reduced integration effort • Leverage on existing Ethernet/IP knowledge Flexibility • Encode once, display anywhere • Scalability and flexibility for future extensions • Distributed design with possibility for redundancy

  13. FRG Viewer Apollo Keyboard and mouse Control FRG Viewer - SCN

  14. Configuration • The TransForm SCN can be configured from any PC on the network using a standard web browser

  15. Web Interface – General Settings

  16. Web Interface – Ethernet settings

  17. Web Interface – Encoder Destination * Unicast or Multicast

  18. Web Interface – Encoder Properties

  19. Web Interface – Remote Pointer

  20. Benchmarks

  21. Performance • Performance depending on • Resolution • Analog or digital input (noise!) • Content • Test sequences defined as reference Mouse responsiveness FPS test Slide show Scrolling text

  22. ABT – Another Benchmark Tool

  23. ABT - Details • Purpose • Provide a set of tools to objectively quantify performance. • But use it for what it is worth. Hands-on is still the best test • Work in progress • Benchmarks • Random red, green and blue rectangles • Moving window • Controlled simulation of real life applications (ATC map) • Calculated values • % of pixel change per frame • Application frame rate • Results • Frame Rate versus % pixel changes or complexity of the content

  24. ABT - Performance Benchmarks FPS • FPS depends on resolution 20 Source: SXGA 1280x1024 DVI 18 15 10 8.7 5 Complexity Of Change Mouse movement ‘Rotating window’ 38% change / frame ‘ATC benchmark’100 moving planes
