Portable PC Camera '98 Design Guideline

Executive Overview

PC Imaging is a new market segment created by the convergence between the digital imaging industry and the PC. PC Imaging solutions, like other PC-based applications, are characterized by ease of use, interoperability, quick time-to-market, and cost-effectiveness. This document provides guidelines for designing and developing interoperable, easy to use, low-cost Portable PC Cameras that take advantage of the image processing capabilities of Pentium® Processor with MMX™ technology and Pentium II processor based PCs.

To further enhance and accelerate the adoption of PC Imaging, this design guideline outlines the requirements for the first generation of a new peripheral category, Portable PC Cameras. An introduction, an architectural overview, and a list of design guidelines form the basic elements of this document.
