Product review: the Coreco Oculus-500 imaging system

Recent developments in computer imaging technology have brought about significant improvements in the display resolution and capabilities of desk-top imaging systems. The Coreco, Inc. Oculus-500 is a group of high resolution imaging boards for use with IBM-AT and compatible computers. The tested $8000 system consists of a 2 Mb interface board, display/controller board, driver, toolkit, and software interface package. With a display resolution of 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz non-interlaced, the OC-500 offers excellent resolution. The accompanying software is being further developed by a responsive company, but can in places be tedious to use. However, the result of understanding the software is a system with superb capabilities.
