EZwindow4KE

4K UHD Video Combiner

The EZwindow4KE™ UHD video combiner provides video combining for 4K displays up to 4096×2400 @ 60 Hz. Designed for applications that require combining of low latency UHD video with up to 4 additional video streams, to produce a single UHD video output with overlays and/or windows.

Features

Supports 4K displays

Video combining for 4K displays up to 4096×2400 @ 60Hz resolution

Up to 5 input channels

(1) low latency UHD DisplayPort or HDMI input plus (4) input board slots that may house various input boards

Video keying with blending

RGB, Luma, or HSV Keying inside user-defined key area with programmable foreground & background alphas when key is true or false.  Separate user-defined foreground and background alphas outside the key area

Video combining

Windowing, split screen, top-bottom, PIP, and more

Applications

Training and simulation environments

Combining multiple display images into a single instructor operator station (IOS) monitor feed in training and simulation environments

Combining HUD and out-the-window video

Combining HUD image with Out-the-Window video for a single projector

Medical environments

Combining multiple modalities

Real-time, minimal latency video combining applications

Any application that combines multiple video sources in real-time, with minimal latency and minimal video artifacts

Display Interfaces and Control

Input Board Options* (Channels 1 – 4)

Type A: Multi-Format

Supports the following inputs: DVI-D, RGBHV, RGBsog, RS170, RS343, composite (NTSC/PAL). Any one of these inputs may be selected. Type A supports resolutions up to WUXGA with pixel rates up to 162MHz.

Type C: DisplayPort

Supports DisplayPort 1.1a resolutions up to WUXGA with pixel rates up to 165MPixels/sec.

Type BB: Dual DVI

Supports a dual DVI input, for resolutions such as 2560×1600 and 2560×1440.

Type DD: DisplayPort

Supports DisplayPort 1.1a resolutions up to 2560×1600 @ 60Hz, and pixel rates up to 330MPixels/sec.

* Type A and C boards can be installed in any one of 4 slots for up to 4 cards per unit. Type BB and DD boards can be installed in slots 1-2 or 3-4 for up to 2 cards per unit.

Low Latency I/O Options

M2: DisplayPort 1.2 I/O

Supports DisplayPort (up to 600 MPixels/sec) / 4Kx2K @ 60 Hz.

M6: HDMI 2.0 I/O

Supports HDMI (up to 600 MPixels/sec) / 4Kx2K @ 60 Hz.

Video Blending with Keying

Alpha blend

Two video sources are mixed per a user defined ratio. Alpha blending is the most common video blending technique.

RGB keying

Two video sources are mixed, based on RGB content of one of the video sources. Allows Up to (4) different levels of mixing based on If-Then-Else logic statements for RGB content.

HSV keying

Two video sources are mixed, based on the calculated HSV value of each RGB pixel in one of the video sources.

Independent windowing: 4K @ 60Hz

Examples (not exhaustive) of independent windowing with up to four video feeds (Windows 1-4) and a low latency 4K background channel

Independent windowing: 4K @ 30Hz

Examples (not exhaustive) of independent windowing with up to four video feeds (Windows 1-4) and a low latency 4K background channel

Powerful Configuration Utility

Use Westar’s EZwindow4KE configuration utility to define the input timing, output timing, keying scheme, and the area-of-interest within the source video and where to map the AOI within the output resolution. The remote interface can be used for initial setup or operational control and supports user-defined:

  • Input timing and output timing
  • Video scaling and area-of-interest (AOI)
  • “Key” processing
  • Border colors
  • Image flip (horizontal and vertical) and rotate
  • Digital contrast and brightness adjustments

Example Applications

 

Combine standard resolution HUD overlay into a HDMI 2.0 video stream using RGB keying

In this example, an EZwindow4KE-A###M6 fuses a standard resolution HUD image (1920×1200 or less) into a HDMI 2.0 video stream. An RGB key with programmable alpha values (separately programmable foreground and background alpha values outside the key area, when Key= TRUE, and when Key = FALSE) results in a realistic HUD overlay. This enables a single projector to be used for both the OTW image and the HUD overlay.

Alternately, a EZwindow4KE-C###M2 would be applicable for DP I/O.

Recommended windowing mode:  Independent Windowing (IW)
