DSP-1000 Data Display Board
$ 2995.00
  • Physically identical to CC-1000, pictured.
  • Unlike CC-1000, DSP-1000 displays text generated on PC via RS-232.
The DSP-1000, The Captioning Board, displays the words and symbols from a closed captioned video on a separate LED display. It works by pulling off the hidden closed caption (Line 21) encoded onto a video signal, and sending it to a LED readout display. This has the advantage of leaving the video picture free of CC text boxes, while still presenting the full captioned information.

Removing the closed caption words from the screen improves the aesthetic impact of the image by eliminating the obstruction and distraction caused by on-screen text.

In addition to assisting the hearing impaired, the DSP-1000 also finds application in noisy or very quiet settings such as tradeshows, lobbies, airports, retail stores, restaurants, as well as museum exhibits. The DSP-1000 also offers an elegant solution to the problem of providing synchronized text to accompany an audio-only exhibit.
