The Burny / AMC® Replicator® CCD Pattern Tracing System is an advanced pattern tracer and template following system utilizing CCD video image-capture technology.

It provides accurate and reliable tracing in either edge (silhouette) or centerline tracing modes. The Replicator CCD features an advanced microprocessor and software design, providing high-speed RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) image processing of software algorithms.

An advanced FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) is also incorporated, providing DSP-type (Digital Signal Processing) real-time video processing and data compression algorithms
