Bitstreams™ Visual and Automated Decoder Tests

Using Sarnoff’s Emmy®-winning technology, Bitstreams™ are the de facto standard for systematically and unambiguously testing decoders against industry standards, in a matter of seconds and without a reference signal or specialized decoder. From simulation designs to existing hardware and software products, Bitstreams determine decoder performance and compliance for virtually any application. Major manufacturers, service providers and IC designers use these patented visual verification techniques to test their designs and verify their ability to decode complex digital video and HDTV signals.
