Tata Elxsi and V-Nova join hands for high-performance video services

In order to enable cable operators to deploy V-Nova Perseus technology at an accelerated pace, Tata Elxsi, a leading provider of specialised broadcast and communications engineering services, and V-Nova Ltd., a leading provider of video compression solutions, on Wednesday announced a partnership deal. 
 
Tata Elxsi has already integrated V-Nova’s award-winning technology within the set-top-box (STB) of a satellite TV operator in Europe, enabling rapid deployment and immediate benefits, said the company in a BSE filing on Wednesday.
 
V-Nova Perseus offers the benefits of next-generation codecs on available encoders and decoders while at the same time providing substantial reductions in processing power requirements. Compatible with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware, including both legacy and the latest generation of STBs, Perseus provides optimum performance at the operating points that are the key for service delivery, it said. The benefits are particularly suited to video-hungry services, from HD and UHD TV to social media applications, across all delivery networks, added the company.
 
Meanwhile, Tata Elxsi was trading at Rs 1,668 per share, up by Rs 22.45 or 1.36% as at 1106 hours on Wednesday, on the BSE.
