Digital video surveillance platform based on cell processor and H.264 video compression
Abstract
We analyze challenges in the current approaches to digital video surveillance solutions, both technically and financially. We propose a Cell Processor based digital video surveillance platform to overcome those challenges and address ever growing needs in enterprise class surveillance solutions capable of addressing multiple thousands camera installations. To improve the compression efficiency we have chosen H.264 video compression algorithm which outperforms all standard video compression schemes as of today.
