Empower Technologies Launches BullsEye Real Time Video Motion Stabilizer

March 9, 2010 - PRLog -- Richmond, British Columbia, Canada - Empower Technologies Corporation (TSX.V: EPT) (“Empower”) announced the launch of its first BullsEye Real Time Video Motion Stabilizer BE1000. It uses the latest embedded processing technology and video stabilization algorithm to create a state of the art real time video motion stabilizer. There are many stabilizers in the market that can remove shaky or translational movement. However, the image is still blurry due to uncontrolled camera motions such as shaking and rolling (rotational) movements resulting from strong winds and vibration. The BE1000 has a built-in software algorithm and a powerful embedded computing device to remove any shaking (translational) and rolling (rotational) motions. These motions are the most common problem for cameras mounted in manned/unmanned military, security, and civilian aerial, ground, or marine vehicles. Also affected are outdoor security/surveillance cameras mounted on poles or fixtures attached to a structure to monitor roads, bridges, rail tracks, building/site perimeter (e.g. hospital, reservoir, chemical plant, power station, or nuclear plant). The BullsEye BE1000 is one of the few real time video motion stabilizers in the market that has the latest in embedded computing technology and video motion stabilization software.

The need for a video motion stabilizer is essential to eliminate the effects of undesired camera motions so operators or analytic software can see a stable image of the live or captured video and take appropriate action.

The BullsEye BE1000 is a high performance embedded always-on fanless video image processing device, which is low power, low heat and capable of instant on and instant off. As a result, the unit is much more economical to operate and very adaptable to various field operating environments such as deserts to cold places like Northern Canada.

Empower’s BullsEye BE1000 real time video motion stabilizer is a perfect companion product to Pixon Imaging’s real time video image processor line of products. Empower’s real time video motion stabilizer and Pixon Imaging’s real time video image processor together provide an unprecedented level of translational and rotational image stabilization, dehazing, deblurring, contrast enhancement, sharpening, and signal-to-noise ratio enhancement --all without generating artifacts-- in real time. The BE1000 can perform real time image stabilization for live video or pre-recorded video images.

The BullsEye BE1000 real time video motion stabilizer is available for pre-order immediately from Empower Technologies in BullsEye branded package configuration. OEM/ODM product service is also available. For details, please visit www.empowertechnologies.com or email sales@empowertechnologies.com .
