Real-time video represents enormous amounts of data that must be compressed for more efficient transmission. Research results from the North Carolina State University/Duke University Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Advanced Computing and Communications have led to the development of breakthrough technology in the area of real-time video transmission recovery along with flow control for multimedia streaming to produce as much as 40 times better data compression. The new technique has the unique capability to recover lost information at the data packet and higher levels, maintaining high picture quality for data transmission, including wireless transmission. This new technology has formed the basis of a spin-off company, Togabi Technologies Inc. The new technology will greatly increase all flow of data in wireless and other communications and is the reason that the company was selected by Korea Telecom Freetel, one of Korea's largest wireless communication companies, for its Video on Demand services. |
