The miniature solid-state Digital Video Recorder is specifically designed for use in harsh environments.

The Digital Video Recorder employs broadcast standard MPEG-2 video compression to record high quality, real-time video and audio direct to a PC (PCMCIA) flash card Up to 4 hours of high-quality, full resolution digital video can be recorded on just one 8GB-memory card, which can be easily removed and replaced with an empty card to continue recording or for playback on a PC or laptop using a standard media player application

The Stack DVR is housed inside a ruggedised and sealed enclosure, specifically designed and manufactured to protect the unit in harsh and extreme environments.

Sealed to IP67 with an operating temperature range of -20C to +70C, the unit is compact and durable with no moving parts (other than the sealed flash card access door), making it capable of operating where normal VCRs or DV recorders are not.

Recording in harsh environments, such as continual shock and vibration and extreme climate conditions is now entirely possible, making it ideal for all mobile and on-vehicle video-recording applications.

A data overlay feature is provided enabling date and time to be stamped onto the footage.

Recordings can be archived direct to DVD for playback on either a PC or a DVD player.

The Stack DVR can be used as a stand-alone harsh environment Digital Video Recorder, for use with other video systems.

Stack can also supply the DVR with a video kit incorporating a miniature bullet CCD camera and even a full, Synchronised Video-Logger System, complete with modular data acquisition equipment from 8 to 256 channels.
