Permalink: Scalado Demonstrates CAPS Imaging Technology by Jan Harris

Scalado AB, an imaging software development company, is demonstrating its new CAPS imaging technology at the 3GSM World Congress 2007 in Barcelona from 12-18 February.

CAPS, a patented imaging software engine for camera phones, will be integrated into a number of next-generation camera phone platforms in 2007.

Together with multi mega-pixel cameraphones, CAPS software will enable users to take digital camera quality pictures with their camera phone.

The company will showcase the Scalado AutoRama™ feature of CAPS at the show, which enables multi-megapixel panorama effects and also Scalado SpeedView™ which allows real-time browsing, zooming and panning of images.

CAPS imaging technology includes various patented image management techniques including RAJPEG, a JPEG codec technology which reduces the amount of RAM memory required by a factor of 25x while still processing full resolution mega pixel images.

RAPJEG increases performance and the speed for image manipulation by a factor of up to 10x.

Scalado has its head office in IDEON Research Park in Lund, Sweden.
