Abstract: A machine vision functionality deployment system for transcoding a raw machine vision data signal in an existing machine vision system for capturing sensed information from a substrate. Provided is a digital data interface bus to: receive raw machine vision digital data signals from an acquisition device. The raw machine vision digital data signals are in an acquisition device format and to output a transcoded machine vision digital data signal to a consumption device in a consumption device format. A digital data processor in communication to the digital data interface bus operable to: identify digital data elements associated with an artifact of the substrate in the raw machine vision digital data signal, wherein the artifact is not detectable by the consumption device; transcode the raw machine vision digital data signal by rendering the artifact detectable in the transcoded machine vision digital data signal by the consumption device.

Abstract: Described herein are various embodiments of decentralized media distribution systems, devices and methods over a scalable local network. Embodiments relate to scalable media distribution amongst media data components comprising at least one media acquisition unit for acquiring source media data, and at least one media presentation unit for processing source media data.
