Demand for video is huge, it’s immediate…and it’s getting bigger and faster all the time.  

Euclid Discoveries LLC is a multidisciplinary group of researchers and software engineers focused on creating next-generation video processing and compression technologies. The company has assembled talent from multiple disciplines including leading academic researchers from the Computer Vision, Information Theory, and Signal Processing fields and software developers with video processing and distributed system expertise.

Euclid Discoveries’ mission is to identify, develop and reduce to practice new video processing technologies in a form that is commercially viable. While many companies are focused on the critical work of optimizing and incrementally improving conventional algorithms, Euclid’s investment in R&D builds further out on that same work while establishing a strong intellectual property position. 

The new video processing techniques developed by Euclid leverage the industry’s current investments in state of the art compression technology (including MPEG-4 Part 10/H.264), adding new gains in processing capabilities and compression rates from higher-level modeling. This new addition to the standards-based technology has been anticipated by the standard, but to date has not been practically demonstrated on all types of video.

EuclidVision™, a next generation video processing and compression technology, addresses the exploding consumer demand for high quality video on a multitude of video-enabled devices. By all reasonable estimates, the market growth has exceeded the anticipated growth of the industry’s infrastructure, even with the anticipated gains expected from current state-of-the-art compression technologies.

EuclidVision extends the block-based compression paradigm to take advantage of features and objects in the video.  These features and objects provide a foothold for engaging more advanced modeling, bridging the macroblocks of conventional compression to feature modeling and object modeling techniques.

The team’s research and development has culminated in the eFLEX™ codec prototype. This prototype brings forward an integrated set of EuclidVision technologies into a single package, showing the effectiveness of these techniques on all video types. eFLEX blends current video compression standards, in the form of H.264, and EuclidVision technology.

Euclid’s breakthrough research brings together and advances the fields of video compression, Computer Vision, Image Understanding, and Pattern Recognition.

The result?  Higher compression, better narrow bandwidth performance, and no loss in visual quality.

Come see how EuclidVision and eFLEX process video at the speed of life.
