Develop a new codec utilizing existing compression technology but adding features to the codec using code in the video or audio files that will work specifically with the codec and a group of centralized functions The codec is open to work over mpeg 2,4 or 7 standards. We are looking forward to the mpeg 7 standards but need the functions to work in the playback functions of today (mpeg 2 or 4) There is also a need to look at the code as software and software-on-chip (SOC) Opportunities exist to negotiate royalty.
