SAN FRANCISCO and GRENOBLE, France, May 29, 2014 --


At DAC 2014, Allegro DVT will perform a live demonstration of its HEVC/H.265 encoder IP core. The demonstration will be conducted on a prototyping platform, demonstrating the features and video quality of our HEVC/H.265 encoder IP.

High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), alias H.265, is the next generation video standard, which brings 50% bitrate savings compared to equivalent H.264/AVC encodings. HEVC is expected to be the mainstream video standard for the next decade, as it technically supersedes all other video formats.

Allegro DVT HEVC/H.265 encoder IP core supports Main and Main10 profiles, up to 4K resolutions.

Our implementation aims at providing the highest possible video quality, and really leverages the bit-rate saving potential provided by the new HEVC coding tools. With an optimized area and low power consumption, our IP is perfectly suited for high volume consumer applications, such as tablets, smartphones, digital & wearable cameras.

Thanks to the aggressive time to market of our IP, our customers can quickly tape out SoCs with cost optimized, high quality HEVC Main/Main10 profiles encoder. With the completion of our HEVC encoding IP, Allegro DVT now provides a comprehensive solution for H.264/AVC & H265/HEVC encoder and decoder IPs.

At DAC 2014, on our booth, we will also demonstrate:

*HEVC/H.265 Decoder IP, our fully compliant HEVC Main/Main10 profile decoder, capable to support real-time decoding of 4K x 2K@60fps resolution and beyond.

*H.264 Hardware Encoding & Codec IPs, with best-in-class video quality, minimized silicon area, optimized power consumption and an ultra-low end-to-end latency.

*WiGig WDE Codec IP, our silicon proven Wireless Display Extension (WDE) codec for next generation 60 GHz wireless technology: IEEE 802.11 ad/WiGig.

*HEVC/H.265 Compliance Streams, provide HEVC/H.265 decoder manufacturers with the perfect tool for validating their developments, and ensure compliance with this upcoming video standard.

How cameras deliver sharp images despite changing distances

How cameras deliver sharp images despite changing distances

IDS Imaging Development Systems offers a range of models, from a webcam-like camera in industrial quality to a tiny autofocus camera that weighs just12 grams. The 13 MP autofocus camera uEye XC closes the market gap between industrial cameras and webcams. Setting up and operating only requires a cable connection. After that, the autofocus camera immediately delivers high-resolution, detailed images and videos. With the optionally available, quickly exchangeable macro lens, users can easily shorten the minimum object distance of the camera. This makes it also suitable for close-up applications. Focus from a distance of just 10 cm. The uEye XS is even more compact and fits into almost any application with its size of just 26.4 x 23 x 21.7 mm. Thanks to its autofocus and 5 MP CMOS sensor, it delivers consistently sharp images and videos from a distance of just 10 cm. When it comes to image quality, natural color reproduction and harmonious contrast are also decisive factors. IDS has therefore equipped the uEye XS with many other practical automatic features familiar from consumer technology. This includes white balance, exposure and gain. As a result, it delivers the best possible result in every situation.
