'World's first' VESA DSC training is offered

Hardent’s video compression training comes as a natural extension to the company’s experience of ASIC, SoC and FPGA design challenges in the video industry and active involvement with the VESA DSC Task Group that defined the VESA DSC v1.1 video compression standard. The training will be provided by a senior electronic design engineer who participated in VESA’s DSC Task Group and has extensive experience in both broadcast and consumer video product development.

The video compression training will offer an insight into the underlying structure of DSC video algorithms, DSC applications, usage models, system architecture, as well as implementation challenges for DSC encoder and decoder designs. Attendees will also gain an understanding of the resources available at VESA and the considerations for designing a product compatible with the VESA DSC v1.1 video compression standard.

Hardent's training will be launched this autumn in Seoul, South Korea and Tokyo, Japan. Additional course dates in other countries will be added to the Hardent training schedule in the coming months. Upon request, Hardent also offers customers the option of private, customised classes catered to individual team needs.

“With our DSC training, companies will better understand how adopting the VESA DSC standard can help them lower overall system costs, save power and reduce electromagnetic interferences (EMI) in their products,” says Alain Legault, Principal, Hardent.
