Advanced Micro Peripherals (AMP) has released a low latency H.264 encoding engine in a PCI-104 form factor. Targeted at video distribution applications which demand a near real-time user experience, the H264ULL encodes four full frame rate, full resolution video inputs in parallel with latency of less than 40ms on all channels and with minimal CPU overhead. When paired with AMPs H264ULL-Decoder, glass-to-glass latency of less than 100ms is achieved.
The H264ULL also provides stream duplication which is the ability for a single video input to be compressed into multiple streams with different characteristics. This helps eliminate the need for trans-coding to support devices with different resolutions such as smartphone and flat panel displays. Additional features provided by the H264ULL-Encoder include OSD Video Text Overlay, full control of video input, trans-sizing, trans-rating, and motion detection.
The H264ULL-Encoder is available in commercial and extended temperature versions for use in UGVs, UAVs, submersible ROVs, rail transit, and surveillance military and harsh environment applications.
