Tokyo Video Tech #13 — Accelerate: Where enabling technologies push video forward

Event Overview 🎥

Video technology is rapidly advancing, encompassing everything from innovative delivery protocols and GPU-accelerated codecs to the infrastructure that supports large-scale live events. Join us for Tokyo Video Tech #13 as we explore:

• Building Media over QUIC Relay Systems: Challenges and design decisions.
• Implementing Professional Codecs: Utilizing Vulkan and FFmpeg on general-purpose GPUs.
• Reactive Infrastructure for Live Events: Techniques for piracy detection, QoE monitoring, and feed personalization.

This is an in-person event only (no live streaming).
