Summary

This webinar discusses compression, an often misunderstood, undervalued and under-deployed tool for vision applications. This session will discuss the various approaches to deploying compression, and how a novel approach enables low latency, high reliability, and lossless compression for vision applications.

When designed and deployed properly compression can significantly boost the bandwidth capabilities of existing infrastructure and increase performance while maintaining and lowering costs.

With Hosts James Falconer, Product Manager & Eric Boisvert, Principal Hardware Designer

The session will include real-world application examples of compression deployed in high-value imaging systems for security, defence, and medical devices, such as:

  • Dental / Medical Imaging: This requires larger image sensors and more data but without the need to invest and replace installed infrastructure. For patients, the benefit is reducing exposure times and not requiring second scans.
  • 360 Imaging / Machine Vision: This empowers more image sources, 24/7 monitoring, ability to support larger image sensors and multiple networked devices over lower-cost infrastructure.
