Video Software

The high-performance ARM^® processors allow device manufacturers to perform many advanced video functions in software running on the ARM processor, removing the need for a dedicated video engine and thus saving on production costs. Software vendors in ARM Connected Community provide products that implement the popular MPEG-2, MPEG-4, VC1, WMV formats.

With the introduction of ARM's NEON SIMD technology, the NEON SIMD engine can significantly speed up video operations such as deblocking and deringing, and performing filter operations such as FFT, FIR, IIR etc.

ARM Connected Community includes an extensive collection of leading third party companies that can provide the complete range of video solutions, all optimized for ARM processors. Many of these solutions are already deployed in a wide variety of existing ARM Powered^® products, including mobile phones, PDAs, portable audio players, portable media players, digital set-top boxes and video surveillance systems.
