1. Legacy Video Architecture - Sources and Limits:
Current video processing is based on four core concepts; first developed for voice data in the 1970s:
1. Convert analog image pixels to digital data in a static CODEC; based only on compression and loss.
2. Process data in all video frames the same way; based on compression – not content or app uses.
3. Transfer data in uniform packets; based on one-way transfer - without return receipt or control.
4. Expand data in one format; not optimized for apps, content, quality, stability, accuracy, efficiency.
These legacy limitations severely limit the capability and value of current video applications.
Current and future video apps for enterprise and mobile platforms require fundamental changes.
2. Legacy Video Architecture - Standards and Barriers:
Video standards are now based on MPG Video Format; Microsoft/Lyncs; and UDP Video Transfer.
A) Motion Picture Group/MPG-LA; controls 1,000+ outdated patents on mpg legacy video format.
(MPG H263-H264 core patents are expired, and support for MPG/H265 is still limited to few firms.)
B) Microsoft/Lyncs; controls patents/standards for video data transfer on wired and mobile networks.
(Microsoft migrated from static Lync to enhanced Skype ; and now supports Linux-based OS and DVO.)
C) Internet video file transfers are still based on the low reliability User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
(UDP is a simple, one-way, data packet delivery, with no acknowledgement or control capability.)
These legacy standards and patents have blocked upgrades in video process, transfer and efficiency.
The collapse of outdated standards now opens the market for the next generation video architecture.
3. DVO Architecture – Focus and Capabilities:
DVO was developed for Defense Department as an accurate, stable and efficient video data process.
Legacy video standards and tools were a barrier; and a new robust video architecture was required.
DVO is a highly accurate, stable and efficient architecture for capture, process, transfer and control.
DVO supports real time integration of multiple video sources, formats, applications and platforms.
DVO is easily integrated and optimized for many unique video applications and mobile platforms.
DVO runs on Secure Mobile Linux Operating System; with secure metadata controls and encryption.
DVO supports Linux-based mobile and enterprise OS platforms; Apple/iOS and Google/Android 4/5/6
DVO was developed from the mobile semiconductor chip set up to the enterprise architecture level.
DVO currently runs on the major commercial mobile chipsets platforms as a download upgrade.
DVO is now migrating to embedded secure custom apps in CPU/GPU semiconductor chipsets.
DVO architecture and applications have been tested extensively against legacy “Streaming” Video.
DVO was built for DoD/DARPA using unclassified technologies; and is available for commercial uses.
4. DVO Architecture – Core Technologies:
DVO architecture is based on these core technologies for Mobile and Enterprise video environments:
• Video Object - Centric Process - focused on defined object identification, extraction and processing.
• Digital Logic CODEC - based on managing multiple image object and reference planes and formats.
• Digital Codec Apps – based on unique / variable primary and transactions configurations for apps.
• Secure Linux Core – supports Linux-based OS for both enterprise and mobile iOS and Android 4/5/6
• Metadata Enumeration - Content attributes and process controls; in secure and encrypted format
• File/Permission Security – Embedded Metadata encryption of source data, transfers, and permissions.
• Stable Transfer Control - Adaptive Recursive control of video data transfer and format configuration.
• Multiple Video Format Control; based on source data and applications configuration requirements.
• Video Format Conversion- Expanding 2D source data and extracted synthetic /floating 3D formats.
• IPv4 and IPv6 – Supports enhanced IPv6, and is “backward compatible” with current IPv4 protocols.
• Multi-Language Alias – Semantic Logic capture, process, translation, index of Languages/Text data.
• Multi-Language Chat – Real time chat/ language translation in cross – language sub-text banner.
