isv is a driver for the IDEC Supervision/16, an image
  capture board that plugs into a 16-bit ISA bus. The IDEC Supervision/16
  digitizes an NTSC television signal, storing a 512 x 480-pixel, 8-bit
  grayscale image in its 256kB dynamic RAM array every 1/30th of a second. The
  host reads frames from the DRAM using 122881 16-bit I/O reads. Reading frames
  from the Supervision/16 is quite slow: after the host reads a 16-bit word from
  the DRAM, the Supervision/16 state machine takes approximately 0.5
  microseconds to get ready for the next read. Theoretically, a frame rate of
  approximately 10 frames per second is possible. isv
  achieves a frame rate of approximately 6 frames per second.
Programming the Supervision/16 Image Capture Board, IDEC, circa 1991.
isv device first appeared in NetBSD
  5.0.
isv driver was written by David
  Young
  <dyoung@NetBSD.org>.
isv will not detect the capture board if
    it is not attached to an active video source. To force
    NetBSD to detect the capture board at any time,
    re-scan the ISA bus using, e.g., drvctl
    -r isa0.
