Gidel’s Lossless Image Compression IP targets FPGA-based Imaging & Vision applications. This lossless image compression IP performs real-time compression for Color Filter Array, CFA, such as Bayer, monochrome, and RGB images and videos. It supports multi-camera and multi-sensor systems at pixel clock rates exceeding 1 Gpixel/s, using minimal FPGA resources and power. In real-world video tests, it achieves a 1:2.3 compression ratio at 8 bits per pixel. Higher bit configurations are available upon request.
The IP integrates with Gidel’s FPGA ecosystem, enabling tailored solutions with image processing, vision algorithms, and concurrent recording.
Two compression modes are available:
Frame compression – compress individual images.
Video compression – compress video using I and P frames.
Compression can be optimized via pre-training on sample image data or on-the-fly training from real-time data.
