Working in tandem, the 32-bit Pixelock overlay card ($499) and the 32-bit PixelMaker VGA card ($299) enable you to integrate PC graphics and video images. Pixelock converts 24-bit VGA images into TV images and overlays them onto live video, using 8-bit alpha-channel compositing. You can view the output on TV or record it on videotape. PixelMaker supports 1280- by 1024-pixel resolution, displays 16.7 million colors, and comes with 1 MB of DRAM, upgradable to 2 MB. Both products are from Power Pixel Technologies (Santa Clara, CA).
