intoPIX technology selected by MikroM for its Digital Cinema product
development
Following quickly on the introduction of its single chip FPGA JPEG2000
technology earlier this month intoPIX has today announced an agreement with
MikroM, a leading provider of audio-visual digital OEM product, to provide a
total decoding solution for Digital Cinema.
The agreement - under which intoPIX will provide its IPX-JP2K compression and
AES security IP’s as core components of MikroM’s new Digital Cinema decoder
product - marks the first step in intoPIX world-wide distribution of its FPGA IP
solutions.
“We have selected intoPIX because of their know-how in JPEG2000 compression
technology and their smart implementation as a single chip FPGA.” commented
Holger Krahn, CEO of MikroM,” This gives us the opportunity to provide a single
chip agile decoder capable of MPEG and JPEG2000 processing and therefore a
competitive advantage in the face of ASIC.”
“I’m delighted to be able to announce the selection of intoPIX technology at
this moment” added Jean Francois Nivart, intoPIX CEO. “MikroM’s experience in a
wide range of very demanding visualization markets and reputation for quality
and reliability gives me great confidence in their ability to provide, and
