TORONTO, Jan. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - ViXS Systems Inc. today announced that it will be demonstrating its
latest product and technology innovations, such as the first MPEG
Profile 10 HEVC media processing solution and 4K (Ultra HD) at the
Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
Consumers have made it clear they must have constant access to their
favorite media regardless of device or location, and this creates
significant challenges for service providers and electronics
manufacturers around the world. As the leader in transcoding SoC
deployments, ViXS is focused on bringing to market media processing
solutions for cloud-based content distribution systems as well as the
digital home network. ViXS' XCode((R)) family of SoCs are helping to process, manage, secure, and distribute
high-quality video and audio, enabling entertainment providers around
the world to give consumers seamless and ubiquitous connectivity to
their content.
"As the pioneer in transcoding semiconductors, ViXS continues to lead
the industry by showing the first media SoC design to demonstrate
10-bit HEVC," said Sally Daub, President and CEO, ViXS. "HEVC is a
critical new technology that will enable the next generation of
consumer media solutions by significantly reducing bandwidth
requirements for high-quality video. We are excited to be showing this
breakthrough at CES along with our other innovative solutions, such as
MoCA 2.0 and quad-stream 1080p HD transcoding."
The company's private suite at CES 2013 is located in Meeting Place MP25953 South Hall 2 Lower Level in the Las Vegas Convention Center. The products and technologies in
the ViXS Systems suite include the XCode SoC demonstrating 10-bit HEVC,
Forge home media gateway platform, MoCA 2.0, Quad-stream HD
transcoding, DLNA and HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), and high-density
transcoding for broadcast infrastructure.
