intoPIX Introduces the New JPEG XS Standard at CES
January 4, 2019
The new international image coding standard is a game changer for 8K
displays, smartphones, autonomous vehicles, AR/VR, Internet of Things
and 5G applications
MONT SAINT-GUIBERT, Belgium–(BUSINESS WIRE)–intoPIX, leading provider of innovative image processing technologies
for professional media applications, is introducing the novel JPEG XS
standard with preliminary demonstration of the TICO-XS FPGA and ASIC
IP-cores, as well as CPU and GPU SDKs during CES 2019. Promising
applications for TICO-XS include self-driving cars, VR/AR gear,
displays, smartphones, or any other device that is required to transmit,
manage or store video data.
Co-developed by intoPIX’s RD&I team and based on their widely used TICO
RDD35 codec, JPEG XS is already generating great interest across various
industries such as industrial vision, broadcast, and professional AV. In
the future, TICO-XS will be a crucial enabler for technological
developments in any video-related device, as it provides the solution
for a multitude of problems faced by consumer electronics manufacturers
today:
Managing more and better pixels
New resolution formats like
4K and 8K are establishing themselves rapidly. With JPEG XS, high
resolution video can be carried over existing bandwidth, with lossless
quality and imperceptible latency.
Saving cost & power
Utilizing JPEG XS for in-device
video transport reduces internal links and memory. Paired with its
extremely low complexity and low memory use, implementors can
significantly reduce power consumption of any electronic device.
Preserving quality with no latency
Being a line-based
compression technology, JPEG XS induces only a few microseconds of
latency – imperceptible to the human eye. After undergoing rigorous
testing procedures by the ISO JPEG committee, the codec provides fully
transparent quality at compression ratios from as low as 3bpp (8:1) for
graphics, text, movie, gaming content and down to 1,5bpp ~ 16:1
typically for television and natural content.
Simplifying connectivity
Processing video data streams with
JPEG XS generates the crucial bandwidth savings needed to move more
pixels over wired or wireless transmission (Wifi, WiGig, 5G), but also
reduces the need for many internal links within a device.
To display the technology’s capabilities, the Belgian technology
provider will present several demos on their CES booth 1129 at Westgate
Paradise Center, Las Vegas, NV.
