Well beside this news, the new patented EchoView technology will certainly
find its way in the multi-billion dollars markets for mltimedia
applications. If it really compresses lossless images 30 times, it will be a
very serious chalenger to MPEG2 and MPEG4 (and all related technologies
whose licence costs are much more expensive)!
I'm quite sure they are studying now an adaptation of the technology to
compress video (3D compression) instead of just 2D images, as compressing
each image individually 30 times may still be poor face to the possible
compressions based on coherences across successive image frames. This could
mean a lossless compression with a factor or 50 for video, much better than
what MPEG4 (and related technologies like DivX 6 and Microsoft WMV-HD)
proposes for now!
