TICO is a disruptive, innovative, visually lossless, light-weight and line-based compression technology, specifically designed to be used instead of uncompressed video in many applications.
TICO is a smart upgrade path to manage higher resolutions (4K, 8K, …) and frame rates while assuring visual quality, keeping power and bandwidth at a reasonable budget and significantly reducing the complexity and cost of a system, a chip or an infrastructure.
Applications:
From 3G-SDI to IP in 4K
The mapping of the TICO mezzanine compression to carry UHDTV 4K 60P over a single 3G-SDI cable has been specified in the SMPTE RDD35. intoPIX provides the needed building blocks to create a 4K over 3G-SDI solutions. Have a look at the intoPIX TICO IP-cores and peripheral IP to map the compression over SDI.
4K with TICO compression over SMPTE2022-6
As SMPTE ST2022-6, defines the transport of HD-SDI or 3G-SDI over IP, using TICO, it is easy to leverage an existing SMPTE 2022-6 system to carry up to three UHDTV 4K 60P streams over a single 10 GbE port using the SMPTE 2022-6 standard.
SMPTE 2110 and TICO compression
SMPTE RDD35 specifies the RTP payload of TICO compression, enabling you to transport any video formats over IP with full flexibility and all the benefits of TICO compression.
8K over a single 10GbE
It has already been proven. TICO can enable you to carry with lossless quality a 8K 60fps video stream over a single 10GbE link using TICO RTP payload and a SMPTE 2110 transport.
8K over a single 12G-SDI
It has already been proven. TICO can enable you to carry a 8K 60fps video stream over a single 12G-SDI link with lossless quality.

intoPIX JPEG XS Plugin for Adobe
JPEG XS Plugin for Adobe Premiere® by intoPIX
Supercharge your workflow with intoPIX plugin, importing, editing and exporting JPEG XS MXF files along with up to 32 uncompressed audio channels. Full-featured and flexible, Adobe Premiere Pro is the industry-leading video editing software to create for web, TV, and feature productions.
Embedding the FastTICO-XS SDK, this plugin enables super-fast encoding and decoding in CPU or GPU, with ultra low latency video editing in HD, 4K and 8K. Among many other export options, it offers the possibility to select the desired video compression rate, the JPEG XS encoding profile, the pixel format (RGB 4:4:4, UYVY 4:2:2 or V210 4:2:2) as well as the audio channels sample depth and layout (mono, stereo, 5.1, etc.)
The values for your workflow
- HD, 4K, 8K editing at the speed of light with a normal laptop: You can import, play, export easily and rapidly HD, 4K & 8K videos. Thanks to JPEG XS, you preserve the topest image quality and process the content with the lowest latency.
- Proxies are part of the master in your JPEG XS MXF file, so you can (re)view HD, 4K or 8K JPEG XS files by just displaying a sub-resolution of it, which significantly reduces the bandwidth and computational load of the editing or the playback. The plugin enables you to switch instantly between full and lower resolutions.

TICO-RAW
TICO-RAW delivers the most beautiful pixels and most perfect colors, with the most brillant brights and the deepest darks ...with the world\'s best efficiency. Designed by intoPIX, it unleashes image sensor and traditional RAW data-flows thanks to an innovative processing and coding. The full power of the image sensor is preserved while reducing the bandwidth and storage needs. It offers high image quality and the capability to manage high resolution, high frame rate and high dynamic range workflows. TICO-RAW is the world’s first RAW codec that can offer compression efficiency with such low complexity on Bayer or Bayer-like Color Filter Arrays (CFA) patterns.
Gain in Efficiency, improve your imaging workflows
- Reduce bandwidth and power consumption to process more pixels from the sensor.
- Handle higher resolution, high frame rate and high dynamic range easily : to capture to record, to transmit, to edit, to analyze.
- Reduce the bandwidth of memory during the ISP process and RAW data analysis.
- Get the lowest latency (\"pixel-line\") to transmit RAW data over your network, infrastructures, interfaces.
- Efficiently decrease the stored RAW image data on the storage media (TICO-RAW is the new RAW at the size of a regular JPEG file).
- Increase the editing, rendering, analytics speed and while retaining the sensor data needed for a complete control of the RAW processing pipeline.
