Abstract
This paper presents basic conceptions and classification of a data acquisition system for multimedia and robotic applications. A DAQ system designed for humanoid head robot built at PJIIT Robotics and Multiagent Systems Laboratory is described. The main goal of the system was to provide robust data acquisition architecture that would reliably provide data to processing modules. A real time operating system QNX Neutrino was used together with a dedicated hardware driver to provide a low overhead, high throughput data acquisition system. The driver architecture was determined by the environment it was operating in and software it interfaced with.
