<p><a href="http://www.interdigital.com/solutions/PerceptFX">PerceptFX</a>&nbsp;works by filtering raw video, isolating and removing bits of data that are invisible to the human eye, quotes VideoEdge from the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.lightreading.com/video/4k-8k-video/video-pre-processing-promises-bandwidth-boost/d/d-id/717396">news analysis</a> published by Sibley, senior editor Cable/Video at Light Reading. PerceptFX deals with the perceptual pre-processing then hands the content off to an encoder. Vantrix Media Platform, with support from PerceptFX, can be applied to offline video and live broadcasts.</p>
<p>In August 2015, PerceptFX and Vantrix debuted the solution in a live transcoding environment at Cable Labs Summer Conference. Later this week, the two companies will demonstrate the Vantrix Media Platform again at the International Broadcasting Convention (IBC) in Amsterdam.</p>
