Ambarella from California has developed a family of low-cost, multicore microprocessors that efficiently compresses and processes HD video. These chips when incorporated into a $799 video camera or digital still cameras will give the ability to take hi-resolution stills of up to 8 megapixels as well as TV-quality video. So far a trio of major camera makers has begun building experimental models with Ambarella’s chips embedded within. HD-quality cameras are the future.
