Video & Image Software

Video capability and static image support is required for many modern devices, from supporting camera video and still images, through to rendering fast responsive user interfaces.

Consumer expectations are constantly growing with 1080p and 4K displays being common, and user experience depending heavily on the quality of the graphical interface. Achieving these requirements in an embedded system is a complex task that needs the right skills and experience.

  • Complex Systems - Combining multi-core processors, neon SIMD coprocessors, GPUs and SOC resources together to achieve amazing product value.

  • Fast Development - Experience with many frameworks such as Linux and Android for fast development and reuse of existing components.

Video & Image Examples

  • Security applications - motion based detection, image capture and video capture.

  • Remote video monitoring systems with low power requirements, cloud connectivity and off site processing

  • Interfacing with existing camera systems to capture produced data streams

  • Analysis of video quality

  • Changing the ‘look and feel’ of images and videos through manipulation, enhancement and processing.

  • Improved user experience via graphical displays with fast, responsive video and user interfaces.


Our Experience

Spore Lab helped develop real-time video analysis and enhancement tools for SmallHD - one of the world's leading on-camera and production field monitors equipment OEMs.

SmallHD’s tools help professional photographers and film directors get their footage right by supplying key insights, all delivered in real-time with low latency.

In the high performance and high stress film and TV world, these tools have to be right and have to work reliably every time.
