Crestron Leverages intoPIX Ultra-Low Latency JPEG 2000 Technology in New DigitalMedia NVX Series

FPGA based compression algorithm enables transmission of stunning 4K60 4:4:4 HDR video over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet with no latency

ISE , Amsterdam , Feb. 07, 2017 – Crestron, a global leader in control and automation technology, announced that it is leveraging intoPIX ultra-low latency JPEG 2000 technology in its next generation DigitalMedia™ NVX Series architecture, a revolutionary network based AV distribution system. Crestron will debut the DigitalMedia NVX Series at stand #C24, Hall 2, at ISE 2017 in Amsterdam, Feb. 7 - 10. The intoPIX FPGA based compression algorithm plays a key role in enabling the DigitalMedia NVX Series to deliver a visually lossless 4K60 4:4:4 HDR video experience within a standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet network with no latency - an industry first.

"Our ultra-low-latency JPEG 2000 IP-core - reaching 10 milliseconds - outperforms most currently deployed solutions in terms of latency, image quality, and resolution," said Gael Rouvroy, intoPIX CEO and Director of Technology. "We're thrilled that Crestron is incorporating it in their groundbreaking new DigitalMedia NVX Series products."

"intoPIX's JPEG 2000 ultra-low-latency technology is integral to the ability of the DigitalMedia NVX Series to transmit 4K60 4:4:4 HDR video with the full capabilities of a standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet network, and with no latency. It represents a dramatic leap forward in the transport of high-performance video over IP networks," said Steve Samson, Executive Director, Business Development at Creston.
