A new method of data compression could see ultra-high definition video – also known as 4K – being streamed to TVs and other devices using around 50% of the bandwidth currently needed.V-Nova has gathered 20 large telecoms, broadcast and IT companies including Sky, Intel, and the European Broadcasting Union to back its new Perseus technology.V-Nova says it can deliver the same quality picture using just 7-8Mbps.
“Ultra HD will still remain niche for some time but this technology will help.”
