| 20120106933 | MOBILE IMAGING APPLICATION, DEVICE ARCHITECTURE, SERVICE PLATFORM ARCHITECTURE AND SERVICES - Systems and methods are provided for compressing and decompressing still image and video image data in mobile devices and monitoring applications. Corresponding mobile device and camera architectures, and service platform architectures for transmitting, storing, editing and transcoding still images and video images over wireless and wired networks and viewing them on display-enabled devices are also provided. | 05-03-2012 |
| 20120106621 | CHROMA TEMPORAL RATE REDUCTION AND HIGH-QUALITY PAUSE SYSTEM AND METHOD - A system and method are provided for compressing data. In use, luminescence data of a frame is updated at a first predetermined rate, while chrominance data of the frame is updated at a second predetermined rate that is less than the first predetermined rate. Moreover, pause information may be inserted with the compressed data, where the pause information may be used when the video data is paused during the playback thereof to increase the quality of a still frame. | 05-03-2012 |
| 20110307928 | Compression Rate Control System And Method With Variable Subband Processing - A system, method and computer program product provide finer rate control in data compression by processing a data stream through a plurality of parallel subbands, wherein a first subband processes the data differently than a second subband. Separate shift quantization parameters for each separate run-of-zeros compressed storage area or pile can be provided, instead of a single common shift parameter for every coefficient as in the prior art. The parameter value for each such area or pile can be recorded in the compressed output file. The separate shift quantization parameters can also be adjusted dynamically as data is being compressed. | 12-15-2011 |
| 20110261249 | Variable sharpness optical system for sub-sampled image - Methods and systems for capturing an image are disclosed herein. | 10-27-2011 |
| 20110255609 | System And Method For Temporal Out-Of-Order Compression And Multi-Source Compression Rate Control - A system, method, and computer program product are provided for temporal video compression. In use, portions of video are buffered in a first order. Further, the portions of video are at least partially temporally compressed in a second order. Another system, method, and computer program product are further provided for compressing video from a plurality of sources. In use, video is received from a plurality of sources. Such video from the sources is then compressed. Such compression is carried out using a plurality of rate controls. In various embodiments, the video may be received by way of a single video stream, and/or the compression may be carried by way of a single compression module. | 10-20-2011 |
| 20110255589 | Methods of compressing data and methods of assessing the same - In a number of embodiments, methods for compressing video data are disclosed. In addition, in a number of embodiments, methods for assessing the quality of compressed videos are disclosed. | 10-20-2011 |
| 20110234431 | Multiple Technique Entropy Coding System and Method - A system, method and computer program product having optimal matching to a known or measured probability distribution encodes data without the use of an excessively large lookup table. An encoder constructed according to the present invention uses two or more different encoding methods in combination. In one embodiment, Huffman coding by table lookup is combined with computational generation, such as by using an exponential Golomb equation. The most commonly occurring elements are looked up in a small Huffman table, while the remaining elements are coded with the equation. In another embodiment, data is encoded using two or more equations. In yet another embodiment, data is encoded using multiple tables in conjunction with one or more equations. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20110113453 | Methods for Displaying Video Monitoring Applications and Services Across Heterogeneous Networks - Methods for the deployment of an image servicing platform over a mobile wireless network ate described. A mobile multimedia service controller (MMSC) includes a video gateway that is capable of transcoding among different video formats supported by an imaging service platform. The MMSC can be connected over a network to a download server that provides updates to a transcoder application and a video image application. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110103462 | SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR IMAGE AND VIDEO TRANSCODING - A system and method are provided for compressing data. Initially, data is received in a single device. Such data is encoded utilizing the single device to generate first compressed data in a first format. Moreover, the first compressed data is transcoded utilizing the single device to generate second compressed data in a second format. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110072251 | PILE PROCESSING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PARALLEL PROCESSORS - A system, method and computer program product are provided for processing exceptions. Initially, computational operations are processed in a loop. Moreover, exceptions are identified and stored while processing the computational operations. Such exceptions are then processed separate from the loop. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20100226438 | Video Processing Systems, Methods and Apparatus - Video compression and decompression that produces a desirable balance of compression rate and picture quality while, at the same time, reducing an average number of computational cycles required to achieve the desired picture quality and compression rate.
