Thanks, Tony
agree rkillings : But I'd have said 'card' (for 'carte'), not 'board'. Yes, it is a circuit board, but more specifically, it's a PCI card.

It is a PCI card, of course. My brain (UK trained, following EN-US rules in written manuals, result: occasional confusion) used what came naturally & a copy of CL's suggestion.

Frame grabber board

Peer comment(s):

disagree Tony M : Not necessarily the same thing at all / 'frame grabber' implies freezing a single frame; this is not the same thing, it is for 'live' video; the translation may SOMETIMES be correct, but should not be considered a direct 1:1 equivalent
1 hr
please explain the difference. It comes up very often as a direct translation...
neutral Charles Hawtrey (X) : The IP-1405 doc. states 'Unlike multimedia "frame grabbers," the PCI-1405 features increased image acquisition throughput and processing...' in the Overview.

Video capture board

audiovisual capture board (another option, if the board includes sound capture)

video capture board (36K hits)

(image acquisition board is not the standard jargon, digitalizing is also not that common)
Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : image acquisition board is perfectly normal jargon

OK, I wrote fast, it is normal jargon, and it's correct, but it's used with a lesser frequency
