JKN Electronics, Inc. offers high performance video frame grabbers for a variety of computer buses as listed below. PCI Bus Master Frame Grabbers generally contain no on board video memory (VRAM). Because they can take control of the PCI bus, they are capable of real-time image data transfer directly into PC memory and near real-time image data transfer into SVGA , i.e. screen display memory. They are often used for automated machine vision type applications where a computer analysis program is making real-time decisions based on image data being transferred rapidly into PC memory.

By comparison, PCI and AGP Bus Video Capture Frame Grabbers with integrated on board SVGA chips and video memory (VRAM) provide a tight integration path between the incoming image data and the on board video memory. In addition to image acquisition, they also function as the PC's primary display controller. These frame grabbers provide real-time viewable images on the computer's non-interlaced monitor. They are particularly useful in applications such as microscopy where their real time display aids in precise focusing of the instrument.
