    Compressing Image Data - Not Image Quality

    As today’s cameras deliver higher resolutions and frame rates and new systems architectures such as vision on the edge have bandwidth limitations, compression becomes a key challenge for advanced image processing applications. But how can the data throughput be reduced without jeopardizing the image and inspection quality?
