Nokia, Ericsson and Fraunhofer Partnership for NextGen Video Compression
Nokia, Ericsson, and Germany's Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute (HHI) have formed a joint research partnership to define the next generation of video compression for the 6G era.
Ville-Veikko Mattila, Head of Multimedia Technologies at Nokia, said the three companies are "shaping the next generation of video standards" from the very start of the process, so that "the values of openness, excellence, and sustainability are embedded in the next generation of digital media experiences".
Their first joint proof-of-concept codec delivers "considerably higher compression efficiency" than current standards, including H.264/AVC, H.265/HEVC, and H.266/VVC, without a major increase in complexity.
