Creo Uses CAST IP Cores in Advanced Leaf Aptus Digital Camera
Backs
Semiconductor intellectual property (IP) provider
CAST, Inc. today (June 13, 2005) revealed that the Leaf® Aptus digital
camera backs announced last month by Creo Inc. employ CAST IP cores for image
compression and decompression.
Aimed at
professional photographers, the new Leaf Aptus 22 and Leaf Aptus 17 camera backs
offer photo resolutions of 22 million and 17 million pixels respectively. Along
with fast processors and a variety of convenient storage mechanisms, the
lossless data compression implemented by CAST’s cores makes the large data
files generated by these cameras significantly more manageable.
