French term

cartes d'acquisition

French to English Tech/Engineering IT (Information Technology) company description for catalogue
Company brochure describing products, including video surveillance equipment:

"Stockage des images:

"Maintenant, on stocke les images sur un PC équipé d'une ou plusieurs cartes d'acquisition qui transforment la vidéo sortant de la caméra en données informatiques compressées suivant divers algorithmes (mjpeg, mp4, DV, wavelet, etc.)"

I need the common technical term in English All of the google searches I've made so far stick to French and do not give me a reliable translation into THE English term. I am sure there must be one. Flash card? or what?

Thanks for any help.
