DecodeCore is a real time, safety critical H.264/H.265/MPEG2/VC-1 video decode driver that enables the hardware video decoder built-in modern graphics and SoC processors. This CoreAVI video decode driver is now deployed in airborne and ground control display systems all over the world, including UAV command and control, 360 degree situational awareness, Diminished Vision Enhancement (DVE), Geographic Information Systems (GIS) moving maps and diverse sensor warming systems.
DecodeCore enables applications to decode and display compressed videos with lower CPU usage than with a software-only decoder.
The driver architecture and API ensures high efficiency and low latency between the video decode hardware and the graphics hardware. The decompressed videos are also available as a texture, wich allows complex hardware accelerated image manipulationd and integration with both graphics 2D and 3D.
