Beamr and NVIDIA to present video modernization solution By Investing.com

HERZLIYA, Israel – Beamr Imaging Ltd. (NASDAQ:BMR), a company specializing in video optimization technology, announced today its collaboration with NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:) to present joint research at the ACM Mile-High-Video 2024 conference in Denver, Colorado. The research focuses on an automated process for modernizing video libraries to the emerging AOMedia Video 1 (AV1) format, addressing the challenges of adopting this more efficient standard.

The AV1 format, supported by tech industry leaders such as Amazon (NASDAQ:), Google (NASDAQ:), and Microsoft (NASDAQ:), offers improved efficiency but has seen slow adoption due to the complexity and cost of upgrading existing video libraries. The collaboration between Beamr and NVIDIA introduces a solution that leverages NVIDIA’s hardware-accelerated AV1 encoding to facilitate the transition without compromising video quality or increasing costs.

Beamr’s CTO, Tamar Shoham, will present the findings, including the company’s Content-Adaptive-Bitrate technology, which is backed by 53 patents and aims to automate the conversion process while maintaining high video quality. This technology is poised to help industries like AI, machine learning, and content streaming to modernize their video formats efficiently.

In addition to the research presentation, Beamr is set to launch a new video cloud service on February 20, 2024, which will be powered by NVIDIA and hosted on Amazon’s AWS. This service is designed to simplify video processing and make it more accessible and affordable. A webinar with Beamr CEO Sharon Carmel will be held on the same day to discuss the launch and the company’s Q2 roadmap.

This announcement is based on a press release statement.
