H.264 Video Codec on FPGA

Hardware video encoders & decoders are efficient way of implementing performance oriented,  low power Video Codecs. The hardware have high computational and memory bandwidth capabilities that are essential to real-time image/video processing systems, when compared with DSP processors. The products like Digital video recorders, Video wireless devices, Video surveillance systems, Hand held HDTV video cameras, requires low power high performance implementation. The important  step towards this realization is to prototype the Codec in FPGA.

 

How to publish technical papers

This short article is for the beginners who want to publish technical papers (like ieeepapers). Publishing papers are easy if you have enough interest and patience to read documents. Cheers for your first paper.

 

Research Interest

Video Codec Basics

Video compression algorithms ("codecs") enables the reduced storage requirements and bandwidth requirements, while delivering good perceived video quality. The embedded developers and researchers should have a good understanding of the various algorithms in video codecs.

The following link will take you to a detailed version of video codec basics.
