Abstract

This paper presents some aspects related to test process of an advanced video system used in remote IP surveillance. The system is based on a Pentium compatible architecture using the industrial standard PC104+. First the overall architecture of the system is presented, involving both hardware or software aspects. The acquisition board which is developed in a special, nonstandard architecture, is also briefly presented. The main purpose of this research was to set a coherent set of procedures in order to test all the aspects of the video acquisition board. To accomplish this, it was necessary to set-up a procedure in two steps: stand alone video board test (functional test) and an in-system test procedure verifying the compatibility with both OS: Linux and Windows. The paper presents also the results obtained using this procedure.
