Hi,
        I'm doing a college project in computer vision systems with a limited budget, 
so I have to use whatever hardware is lying around - that being a PCI framegrabber 
card and ccd cameras which came from an integrated vision system produced by Cognex, 
Modular Systems Division (http://www.cognex.com), without any documentation whatsoever.
        The card is labelled "Acumen PCI Vision card", and supports 4 ccd cameras. 
Unfortunately there seems to be no mention of it on the Internet, other than a 
manufacturers PCI device-id.
        Inspecting the card was more helpful - it uses an AMCC PCI Matchmaker (S5933), 
for which full documentation is available. The rest of the card looks fairly custom - 
nothing looks like a standard part - there are custom ASICs, a Lucent DSP, a Bt481 
ramdac...

        Is it a lost cause to try and get this card to work? If not, where should I 
start? Anybody come across Acumen/Cognex products or hardware before?

Any comments or advice greatly appreciated,

Thanks,
Ken Healy
Cork, Ireland.
