A video encoder is a device designed to convert analog video signals into digital data.
The operation of a video encoder involves three main processes: sampling, quantization, and compression. Initially, the analog video signal is sampled at regular intervals and then converted into luminance and chrominance information. Subsequently, it undergoes quantization to transform it into digital data. Finally, redundancy is removed from the video data, and the file size is compressed.
Video encoders find applications across various industries. In the broadcasting sector, they are utilized for recording, editing, and broadcasting TV programs. Surveillance cameras use video encoders to record and transmit surveillance footage, while in video conferencing systems, they facilitate the transmission and reception of video streams. In the medical field, video encoders manage and distribute medical images, and in education, they enable the streaming of video content for online learning.
Key features of video encoders include high-quality output, efficient compression algorithms leading to high compression ratios, support for various formats, real-time processing capabilities, and cost-effectiveness.
