Scatter Gather
Host system memory allocated for frame buffers that is virtually contiguous but physically scattered
throughout all available memory.
Tap
Data path from a camera that includes a part of or whole video line. When a camera tap outputs a partial
video line, the multiple camera tap data must be constructed by combining the data in the correct order.
VIC
Sapera camera parameter definition file that uses the file extension CVI by default. Files using the CVI
extension, also know as VIC files, contain all operating parameters related to the frame grabber board
(i.e. what the frame grabber can actually do with camera controls or incoming video).
