FPGA Powers Arecont Vision H.264 Megapixel IP Cameras

Posted by Ken Cheung in FPGA-based Product on Monday, May 12, 2008

Arecont Vision's new H.264 megapixel camera line was developed with FPGA-based hardware image processing technology. The resulting proprietary H.264 encoder implemented on a single FPGA delivers 80 billion operations per second, a feat that would require 25 Pentium computers. The compression improvement (stream size reduction) with high video resolution is up to 25 times greater […]
