U.S. Department of Defense to Benefit from Reticulate’s Ultra-efficient Video-Streaming Platform

PALM BAY, Fla., Aug. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Reticulate Micro, Inc., a commercial and defense technology company dedicated to delivering trusted and resilient communications over any transport and in any environment, announced today that it has shipped its first government order for VAST™, the company’s advanced video encoding and compression platform built to work over virtually any network at the tactical edge.

The U.S. Army selected VAST™ for its ultra-low latency, strong security, low SWaP-C (Size, weight, Power and Cost) and advanced encoding and compression technology that allows military users to stream video over transport streams deemed previously impossible. As a direct streaming solution, VAST™ delivers high-quality video in ultra-low bandwidth environments at the lowest latency possible, with no need for GPU hardware or servers. VAST™ streams direct in almost any common delivery format and supports streaming as high as 8k or as little as 10kbps.

“The feedback from customers has been extremely positive, as we have proven the ability for VAST to stream video at real-time speeds over bandwidth-constrained networks, without compromising visual fidelity,” said CEO Joshua Cryer. “We believe this is just the start for VAST adoption into major government programs that rely on high-quality streaming video to enable vehicle and drone autonomy.”

Since the beginning of the year, Reticulate has conducted multiple successful government demonstrations of VAST™ to the U.S. government and allied militaries.

Reticulate Micro’s real-time software-based encoder can compress video with a much higher efficiency than standard legacy codecs and does not suffer from the artificing and screen tearing experienced at extreme compression ratios.

Pixelworks Empowers iQOO Z9 Turbo L Smartphone to Deliver a Flagship Visual Display Experience

Published

Expanded Frame Rate Capability and Enriched Visual Effect Options Offer Compelling yet Affordable Visual Quality Upgrades

SHANGHAI, Dec. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: PXLW), a leading provider of visual processing solutions, announced that the newly released iQOO Z9 Turbo L smartphone is equipped with Pixelworks’ X5 Turbo visual processor. The integration solution provides targeted frame rate optimization for multiple popular mobile games, extending the play time for high-frame-rate gaming while utilizing lower power. Additionally, the solution enables multiple gaming filter modes for display enhancement, further enriching the visual experience for players. The smartphone also supports high-frame-rate modes for several video apps, which elevate the immersive video experience for consumers.

Powered by the Snapdragon® 8s Gen 3 mobile platform from Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., the iQOO Z9 Turbo L features a 6,400mAh ultra-thin BlueCell battery with support for 80W fast charging. In terms of display, the device sports a 6.78-inch 1.5K OLED screen with a refresh rate of up to 144Hz. With the adoption of Pixelworks’ X5 Turbo visual processor featuring distributed rendering architecture, the smartphone is able to better allocate processing resources to deliver extended play time of high-frame-rate games, enriched picture quality of low-frame-rate games and a more immersive video experience.

Specific to the gaming experience, the smartphone supports both frame rate improvement and power-saving modes. For games with high native frame rate, the Pixelworks X5 Turbo visual processor reduces unnecessary power consumption by offloading intensive rendering from the GPU, contributing to extended play time while maintaining optimal visual quality. For games with a lower native frame rate, the X5 Turbo dynamically boosts displayed frame rate of games to match the higher refresh rate capabilities of the smartphone’s display, enabling a smoother and more immersive experience at low power. Further enriching the visual enjoyment for mobile gaming , Pixelworks’ solution enables the smartphone with a variety of gaming filter modes, including a set of seven general purpose filter modes—customized, low-light enhancement, snow blindness prevention, old retro, vivid, soft and bright —as well as dedicated filter modes tailored to match the original artistic style for specific mobile games. Users can select filters based on visual preference to maximize the immersiveness of their gaming experience.

With respect to video experience, the smartphone leverages the Pixelworks visual processor’s content-adaptive motion processing to effectively reduce motion judder caused by the mismatch between contents’ native frame rate and the refresh rate of the display. This ensures that even low-frame-rate video content is delivered with excellent and stable visual quality on high refresh rate displays. Currently, this feature supports video frame rate interpolation from 24fps/25fps/30fps up to 60fps, and is compatible with several popular video apps, including iQIYI, Tencent Video, Youku, and Bilibili.

“As a device with flagship performance targeting the mid-range market, the iQOO Z9 Turbo L consistently strives for excellence in both product strength and user experience,” said Yaojing Yang, Senior Director of Gaming Experience Planning Center, iQOO. “We are pleased to continue our collaboration with Pixelworks in enhancing the visual performance and user experience. By integrating the Pixelworks X5 Turbo visual processor with a distributed rendering architecture, the smartphone is able to fully utilize its rendering capability to deliver smoother and more immersive gaming and video experiences. We look forward to extending this high-quality visual experience to a broader range of applications in the future, allowing more consumers to enjoy high-value and performance products that are competitively priced.”

“Congratulations on the launch of the iQOO Z9 Turbo L smartphone! Earlier this year, we collaborated with iQOO on the iQOO Z9 Turbo, and we were impressed by iQOO’s high standards of product quality and emphasis on delivering superior user experiences. The popularity of that model has validated iQOO’s unique market insight,” said Ting Xiong, co-GM and President of Sales and Marketing of Pixelworks China. “It’s an honor to power the iQOO Z9 Turbo L with our content-oriented visual optimization solutions that enable a flagship-level gaming and video experience at an affordable price. We look forward to deepening our collaboration across future products and technology to bring consumers even more groundbreaking visual experiences.”

BingX Introduces ALTCOIN Index Futures Trading: One Click, Countless Trends

Published

1 hour ago

December 27, 2024

VILNIUS, Lithuania, Dec. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — BingX, a global leading cryptocurrency exchange, is excited to announce the launch of ALTCOIN Index, the first futures trading pair involving top altcoins. This innovative trading product offers users a one-click solution to efficiently track and trade major cryptocurrency trends with ease.

Traditionally used in stock markets, a futures index is a financial derivative that tracks the performance of a group of assets, such as stocks of commodities. These instruments were first introduced to simplify trading by allowing investors to speculate on or hedge against the collective movements of selected market sectors. Instead of purchasing individual stocks, traders are able to access broad market exposure in a single transaction, saving time and reducing costs.

In the cryptocurrency market, this new ALTCOIN/USDT futures trading pair works similarly by bundling the performance of the top mainstream cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, excluding Bitcoin (BTC) and stablecoins. The current index includes ETH, XRP, SOL, BNB, DOGE, ADA, TRX, AVAX, and SHIB. This approach is more efficient compared to buying individual cryptocurrencies or ETFs as this allows for direct speculation using tiered leverage options without the need to manage multiple positions, effectively diversifying trading risks associated with individual asset volatility.

Vivien Lin, Chief Product Officer of BingX, commented on the new offering: “By aggregating a range of leading cryptocurrencies into a single trading instrument, we’re giving users a practical and efficient way to better capture market trends. This index trading pair should help our less experienced users with their trading goals more easily, particularly when they are unsure which asset to trade and just want to trade major altcoins in general with leverage.”

BingX users can take advantage of tiered leverage options and competitive rates consistent with the platform’s perpetual futures terms, simplifying open order management and enhancing trading efficiency. The platform also ensures that the index composition remains current, with regular quarterly adjustments and temporary updates in response to market conditions.

About BingX
Founded in 2018, BingX is a leading crypto exchange, serving over 10 million users worldwide. BingX offers diversified products and services, including spot, derivatives, copy trading, and asset management – all designed for the evolving needs of users, from beginners to professionals. BingX is committed to providing a trustworthy platform that empowers users with innovative tools and features to elevate their trading proficiency. In 2024, BingX proudly became the official crypto exchange partner of Chelsea Football Club, marking an exciting debut in the world of sports.
