Technology > Multi-rate Scalable Motion Adaptive Video Coder (SMAC-M)
 

SMAC-M is a revolutionary video compression technology developed by TeleEye specially for video surveillance applicaion.

SMAC-M is the first video coder in the market that uses a multi-stream coding technology to solve the conflicting requirements of simultaneous recording and remote surveillance.

 

Characteristics

  • Specially designed for CAMERIO RX Series Video Recording Transmitter
  • Separate data streams for recording & transmission
  • Output: 5 independent digital video streams at different bit rates,
    real-time video recording, LAN, broadband Internet, phone line & mobile channel
  • Simultaneous efficient remote video surveillance & DVD-quality recording

 

Superior Compression Performance than MPEG-4 Techonology

  • For the same HDD, CAMERIO RX Series incorporated with SMAC-M can record 40% more than MPEG-4 and 4 times more than MJPEG or JPEG2000 at the same picture resolution, quality and frame rate.
  • For transmission, SMAC-M is about 50% faster than MPEG-4 under ADSL environment.

(1) Recording Comparison :
  Recording Performance
Coder Resolution: 720 x 576 ; Rate: 25fps Recording duration for a 200 Gbyte HDD
JPEG 170 GB / day 1.3 days
JPEG 2000 100 GB / day 2 days
M-JPEG 100 GB / day 2 days
MPEG-4 40 GB / day 5 days
SMAC-M 25 GB / day 8 days
SMAC-M: 40% smaller than MPEG-4

(2) Transmission Comparison :
  Transmission on LAN at 100Mbps Transmission on ADSL at 640kbps
Coder Resolution:
720 x 576
Rate: 25fps
Resolution:
360 x 288
Rate: 25fps
Resolution:
720 x 576
Resolution:
360 x 288
JPEG 16 Mbps 8 Mbps 1 fps 2 fps
JPEG 2000 10 Mbps 6 Mbps 2 fps 4 fps
M-JPEG 10 Mbps 6 Mbps 2 fps 4 fps
MPEG-4 2 Mbps 1.2 Mbps 8 fps 16 fps
SMAC-M 1.3 Mbps 0.8 Mbps 12 fps 21 fps
SMAC-M shows superior video transmission performance on LAN & ADSL channels


Unlike traditional video coders such as JPEG2000, M-JPEG or MPEG-4 which compress the incoming analog video and output a single digital video stream, SMAC-M generates multiple video streams which allow multiple remote users to obtain reasonable surveillance performance for their respective channel requirements without affecting each other. SMAC-M provides truly "no compromise" on efficient video transmission and excellent DVD quality recording performance.
