Because video clips are made up of sequences of individual images, or “frames,” video compression algorithms share many concepts and techniques with still-image compression algorithms. Therefore, we ...

The IP surveillance market has boomed over the past decade with dozens, if not hundreds, of new players emerging and traditional CCTV manufacturers expanding into networked technologies. With the ...

Video compression has become an essential technology to meet the burgeoning demand for high‐resolution content while maintaining manageable file sizes and transmission speeds. Recent advances in ...

Two broad categories of compression are currently in use. In lossy compression, data is intentionally discarded. As a result, the decompression of the data doesn't exactly match the original data.

Power is an increasingly important consideration for the majority of system designers. This is particularly true in the case of small handheld consumer devices such as cameras, camcorders and mobile ...

If bandwidth and storage were infinite and free, there would be no need for video compression. However, bandwidth is always limited; the per-byte price of storage decreases over time but it's never ...
