Corporate Profile

Today almost all video and audio are produced and transported as compressed streams, often heavily so. We sweat bullets to create pristine digital-A/V signals that we squeeze down little pipes and dump into small bit buckets! Video Clarity started in 2005 with a simple mission:

• Provide tools to analyze the video quality

Whether we have succeeded or not is up to you, but we can state unequivically, that the journey has been worthwhile.

Technology

To maintain quality as compression standards change, everyone along the chain needs to constantly measure the performance of the compression engines on which day-to-day operations depend. "Digital compression" means having to make choices, including temporal resolution vs. noise, spatial resolution vs. image size, and luminance/color range vs. gamut. Any operation, large or small, from hardware/software designers to end user-producers who work with any kind of compression in standard or high definition, should subjectively and objectively analyze compression performance to know how their technical and aesthetic choices will look to end-users.

Video Clarity created 2 product lines:

• Real-Time Monitoring (RTM) to check audio, video, delay, and data quality. When the quality drops, an alarm is generated and the A/V sequence around the error are saved.
• ClearView Video Analysis for deep analysis of the A/V quality either using quantitative, repeatable measurements or your own eyes & ears

RTM & ClearView are an open-architecture solution for A/V quality test and measurement. We support all of our products through our Silicon Valley, US offices and through our distributor network.

Video Clarity is a proud member of AES, HPA, NAB, SMPTE, VPQM, VQEG, and VSF. Video Clarity is looking into opportunities to collaborate with other vendors in promoting common video quality standards and interoperability.
