IDCC - InterDigital to Showcase Energy Aware Video Solutions and Critical Codec Contributions at IBC 2023 | Benzinga
WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alongside research and innovation in wireless and AI technologies, InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC) is enabling diverse and immersive video experiences while innovating solutions that mitigate energy consumption. InterDigital will showcase cutting-edge video innovation at IBC, one of the industry's leading content and technology shows taking place in Amsterdam from September 15 – 18, 2023. At IBC, InterDigital will showcase an array of research contributions to video codecs, advanced HDR solutions, and pioneering innovations in energy aware media technologies at the Media Coding Industry Forum (MC-IF) and Ultra HD Forum booths, and the IABM Lounge.
At the MC-IF booth, located in Hall 8 at Booth B45 (8.B45), InterDigital will spotlight VVC contributions and energy aware media solutions that help reduce a video screen's energy consumption by intelligently optimizing pixel brightness. The featured demonstration, "DVB Native IP End-to-End VVC Encoding of Energy-Aware HDR Content," was designed by InterDigital alongside ATEME, ENENSYS, and IETR as part of the collaborative 3EMS2 project and proposes a method to reduce energy consumption by adjusting the peak brightness of the HDR screen. The adjustment is made possible by a Versatile Supplemental Enhancement Information (VSEI) message at the encoder side that indicates the extent to which the screen's peak brightness can be reduced, while maintaining the objective quality of the HDR content using SL-HDR technology. The demo will leverage InterDigital and partners contributions to the VVC codec, which is capable of a 40% reduction in bitrate on streamed video with no perceptible decrease in image quality.
