JVC: nuova camera, 4k a fino a 60p e 3D (manca solo la funzione body 
scanner... :-))
JVC LSI Enables High-speed Image Processing in HD Camcorders
Yokohama, Japan, December 14, 2010 - JVC (Victor Company of Japan, Limited) 
announced today its development of the world's first LSI for high-speed 
processing of Full High-Definition video and stills on one chip for HD 
camcorders.
The LSI enables shooting and recording Full HD, including both 2D and 3D 
images, and also ultra-high-resolution 4K2K images of approximately four 
times the resolution of Full HD. High-speed photography with high-speed 
processing also is possible. The LSI achieves low power consumption and 
enables lower system costs by incorporating all image-processing 
technologies for HD shooting, including camera-signal processing and 
video/still image codecs.
Consumers are increasingly demanding HD-level TVs, camcorders and other 
consumer electronics products, requiring manufacturers to offer products 
capable of rapidly processing extra-high-resolution images of the latest 
standards, including 4K2K. JVC's LSI will advance this trend by introducing 
next-generation image-processing technologies for both professional and 
consumer camcorders.
JVC will exhibit a new consumer camcorder with the LSI at the 2011 
International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which will take place in Las 
Vegas, Nevada from January 6 to 9.
Main Features
High-speed processing of camera signals and video/still image codecs, 
including Full HD 2D/3D, 4K2K and high-speed photographs. In addition to 2.7 
times faster processing than previous CPU, the new CPU supports various 
signal-processing technologies (see below) that have been fully revised for 
superior high-resolution image recording;
Signal processing
Camera-signal processing is 1.7 times faster than JVC's previous technology, 
enabling 8.3-megapixel video at 60 frames per second;
H.264 video processing is double JVC's previous technology, enabling 
compression of 2.07-megapixel images at 60 frames per second;
JPEG still-image processing is 5.5 times faster than JVC's previous 
technology, enabling compression at up to 8.3-megapixel images at 60 frames 
per second;
In addition to its image-signal processor, advanced image codecs and other 
image-processing technologies assembled into one chip, the LSI incorporates 
leading-edge 40nm process technology for high functionality, 40% reduction 
of power consumption and 50% reduction of system costs compared to previous 
LSIs. The result is a high-level LSI suited to a wide range of both consumer 
and professional products;
All hardware and software is integrated into one platform, enabling products 
that incorporate this platform to be commercialized highly rapidly.
Main Technologies
1. The LSI achieves real-time 3D compression of separate Full HD images 
(1920 x 1080/60p) from right and left cameras using MPEG-4 MVC. The amount 
of data is double the conventional side-by-side 3D recording format, 
enabling high-resolution Full HD 3D images with one chip.
2. 4K2K images (3840 x 2160/60p) using an ultra-resolution camera system are 
supported.
3. High-speed camera-processing circuitry and a high-speed JPEG engine 
enable the simultaneous capture of Full HD video and 8.3 megapixel stills at 
60 frames per second.
4. High-speed frame video capture for 3D recording at 300 frames per second 
based on high-speed video codec.
History of JVC LSIs for Camcorders
JVC leveraged its years of experience with signal-processing technology to 
develop its first high-resolution image-processing engine, the HD Gigabrid, 
in spring 2007. The engine was incorporated in the Everio GZ-HD7 camcorder 
with internal hard disk drive, the world's first Full HD 1920×1080i 
camcorder for consumers, which began selling in March 2007. Thereafter, JVC 
achieved higher resolutions for newer products, such as the HD Gigabrid Duo 
and HD Gigabrid Premium, both of which have received critical acclaim.

 del resto.
appunto, sono quelli e la dinamica in particolare ad avere bisogno di essere 
migliorati. La definizione è sufficiente ed ormai lo standard è quello. Però 
fra poco, inevitabilmente, comincerà la guerra dei pixel
Qui poi c'è tutto: 4k e 3d. Su una consumer
