Tech Papers 2026: This paper examines AV2, a next-generation video codec designed to improve compression efficiency while supporting a wider range of use cases.
Abstract
AV2 is the latest video compression specification from AOMedia, published in May 2026. Its publication is the result of the AOMedia project developing the next-generation video codec.
This codec not only boasts improved compression efficiency by offering about 30% bitrate savings over AV1 but also delivers features adapted to use cases such as multi-view video...
