^ specialized card for specialized equipment/use , it has no value other than it's original purpose which is something that no home user will ever care about or have a way to use 🤣

It has some useful parts though. Some solid caps, some dip-switches and what looks like memory that could fit some old video cards. 😀

Your strange ISA card seems to be a frame grabber.

Here is a link to a similar card but not the exact same model, your seems more fancy.
