AMD announced it has invested in Nuvixa, a developer of gesture-based video communication and presentation solutions, through AMD Ventures (formerly the AMD Fusion Fund program).
Leveraging depth-sensing camera technologies, the Nuvixa StagePresence immersive video presentation tool extracts a presenter from virtually any background environment, and embeds their live video persona within any compatible digital desktop or slide content. Image processing enhancements only available via OpenCL and AMD accelerated processing units (APUs), create immersive performance and quality improvements that deliver close to double the frame-rate and a more immersive experience to online audiences.
AMD and Nuvixa are collaborating to optimize StagePresence software on desktop and notebooks accelerated by OpenCL to efficiently harness the compute power of both the CPU and GPU cores in the AMD APU. With this optimization, Nuvixa StagePresence is able to achieve up to 96% better performance, resulting in nearly double the frame rate possible with the CPU alone.
Nuvixa StagePresence enables capture of the high-resolution live video of a presenter and overlays it into any presentation or digital desktop in real time, without a green screen or special video editing software using advanced heterogeneous computing algorithms.
