Overview

JPEG XS compression IP-cores for HD, 4K and 8K
At the speed of light!

intoPIX has developed various optimized TicoXS architectures running a different pixel per clock to target a wide range of resolutions and a wide range of FPGA devices & ASIC technology nodes.

Tico-XS is a revolutionary compression technology, standardized as JPEG XS, extremely tiny in FPGA & ASIC. It fits into the smallest Xilinx & Intel devices, it is robust for real-time operation with no latency. It offers a very low gate count & SRAM consumption in ASICs.

What our users say

ITS

“Thanks to the intoPIX JPEG XS FPGA cores, all of our NetVIDxs products offer visually lossless compression and super low latency”

Paul Hightower, CEO

Appear TV

"With the quality of uncompressed video, a sub 1ms latency video codec. There is no longer delays in contribution links for live production”

Carl Walter Holst, CEO

Media Links

"Technology is poised to unleash a new level of low-latency connectivity that will transform the way we make live remote production today"

Mark Podesla, Senior Manager

Macnica

"With TICO-XS, we’re delivering performances with very low power draw, which makes the cost savings at scale even higher

Andrew Starks, Director of Product Management

Village Island

“ Amazingly, the XS doesn’t take more FPGA resource than the TICO RDD35, so we can move forward consolidating on our achievements with VICO so far. As a strong believer in the XS, we happily decided to make the move”

said Michael Van Dorpe, CEO

Riedel

“For broadcasters who want to create full IP workflows and truly replace uncompressed video and SDI, intoPIX JPEG-XS is an outstanding solution enabling to transmit video without losing image quality, with less than 1 millisecond of latency. This intoPIX technology enabled us to achieve a true breakthrough with our MuoN devices: with 64 JPEG-XS encoders per RU, our solutions now boast the highest density on the market”

Renaud Lavoie, Managing Director
