The Model VP100 Video Processor/Noise Reducer is state of the art professional equipment. It achieves significant picture quality improvements by correcting most common video errors as well as enhancing quality by reducing background noise by up to 9 dBs.

The unit provides independent noise reduction of the luminance and chrominance signals using recursive filtering techniques with motion detection and motion compensation. In addition, the VP100 provides means to correct differential gain errors; It provides means to compensate luminance high frequency losses; It permits chrominance level and burst phase correction for proper restoration of color levels and color hue; and It permits luminance/chrominance delay correction for a perfect match of luminance and chrominance positions.

The VP100 is ideal for cable headends to restore the quality of marginal signals and to help meet cable standards. It is also ideal for transmission uplinks utilizing digital compression techniques (e.g. MPEG), where random noise can severely affect compression efficiency. It is highly effective in video production applications as it will improve picture quality from old video tapes and faded films.

The VP100 uses large gate array chips to perform complex signal processing operations with a high degree of stability.
