FastVision is a full-length PCI board with up to two AltiVec processors, each with 64-128 MB of dedicated high- speed (528 MB/sec) SDRAM and the capability of providing over 2.6-3.6 GFLOPS of computational power. Channel Link, Firewire and 64 bits of I/O provide the basis for high-speed communication with any datasource. Applications include digital communications, medical imaging, semiconductor wafer and mask inspection, radar and sonar signal processing.
