JPEG XS

The JPEG XS (ISO/IEC 21122) standard is a lightweight low latency image and video compression algorithm that maintains lossless quality.[1][2][3][4][5] It has applications for streaming high quality content for virtual reality, drones, autonomous vehicles using cameras, gaming, and broadcasting.[2]

In 2016, the JPEG association asked for an improvement of the JPEG format. The JPEG XS was unveiled by Belgian company intoPIX in April 2018 at the NAB Show in Las Vegas. It was presented with more media attention at the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show in January 2019.

An advantage of the format is that it uses less processing CPU than other formats. It also has a low latency, which can reach a few microseconds. Fraunhofer IIS claims transparent compression at ratios of up to 10:1. The maximum supported resolution is 8K, and the maximum supported frame rate is 120 fps.[1]
