ThunderFace 4K Duo, the successor of QOD+, is the ultimate hardware device developed by IN2CORE to provide a superior solution for GPU-driven low-latency video output from QTAKE.
Video assist profession requires dedicated tools, designed to provide the finest monitoring and playback experience. Introducing ThunderFace 4K Duo, output device made for QTAKE Pro and Apple Silicon. ThunderFace 4K Duo converts DisplayPort output from graphics card to professional video standard SDI signal. Sophisticated multiplexing provides up to eight 2K/HD or two 4K/UHD channels using a single cable connection to a host computer.
The purpose of the ThunderFace device is to convert DisplayPort to SDI, and it does so with zero latency. The zero latency of ThunderFace is crucial in achieving the lowest possible latency for the entire system when processing live signal.
However please note the overall setup has certain latency:
input card for SDI capture,
QTAKE image processing,
GPU output, and
output card (ThunderFace).
Each of these steps – except for ThunderFace – adds one frame of latency when processing live signal, resulting in a total of 3 frames.
But here’s a tip: try setting ThunderFace to double frequency.
The result will still be 25 frames per second, but the latency will be 2 frames because each of the four steps (except the first one) will be processed twice as fast.
