V-Nova, a leading provider of data compression solutions, video compression technology, XR technology, and AI acceleration is expanding its presence at NAB Show 2025 in Las Vegas, April 6th-9th.

This year's NAB Show comes at an exciting time, as TV3.0 is ratified in Brazil, with MPEG-5 LCEVC selected as the video enhancement codec layer of the next generation broadcast system.

The MPEG-5 LCEVC (Low Complexity Enhancement Video Coding) Showcase will demonstrate its growing momentum with practical examples of the expanding ecosystem across broadcasting, streaming, and social networks that V-Nova and 50 other companies now support.

The showcase will demonstrate interoperable solutions with LCEVC-enabled encoders, players, and consumer devices. Use cases, including LCEVC-enhanced pixel streaming applications with content co-produced by V-Nova Studios in the Lumiere Award-winning V-Nova PresenZ cinematic 6DoF format, will demonstrate the power of V-Nova technologies. The showcase will cover five key areas:

VR/XR and Cloud Gaming: Immersive cinematic-grade 6 degrees of freedom (6DoF) demos at the V-Nova pod, using the V-Nova PresenZ format and streamed with LCEVC. This breakthrough is set to unlock a multi-billion-dollar market for immersive media in the XR space.

Broadcasting and Pay-TV: LCEVC-capable chipsets, set-top boxes, and an LCEVC-compatible Hisense TV, decoding LCEVC 4Kp60 10bit HDR content, will be shown.

Social media: LCEVC-enhanced apps for scalable multi-layer video delivery of UGC video streams, lowering delivery costs, improving end-user experience, and accelerating the deployability of latest-gen codecs will be highlighted in the demonstration.

OTT Streaming: A showcase of LCEVC's compatibility for in-app deployment on iOS, Apple TV, Android, and Web, providing top-quality streaming at minimal cost.

Ultra-Low Latency for cloud gaming and pixel streaming: LCEVC enhances pixel streaming platforms, including Kyber's latest SDK, enabling remote display of demanding content at the lowest latency.

Guido Meardi, CEO, V-Nova explains, This year's NAB is an exciting milestone for MPEG-5 LCEVC, as TV3.0 is set to transform how Brazil experiences television. The LCEVC Showcase highlights an expanding ecosystem supporting this revolutionary technology across broadcasting, streaming, social media platforms, cloud gaming, and future XR applications. Video service providers can now quickly monetize the benefits of more efficient, lower latency, higher density, and more sustainable video delivery.

V-Nova Studios will also showcase ImmersiX, an immersive content app powered by the V-Nova PresenZ format, which enables audiences to step inside' Hollywood-grade movies and music experiences. The award-winning format blends cinematic visuals with 6DoF XR immersion, allowing users to move within the scene as though physically present.

Visitors to V-Nova's booth will experience this breakthrough format with presentations of Sharkarma, a fully immersive short film, and Weightless, an immersive music experience.

As the XR market grows, V-Nova s PresenZ breaks through technical barriers, offering viewers the comfort and photorealism previously unobtainable in immersive media. The new possibilities opened by V-Nova PresenZ promises to unlock a latent multi-billion-dollar market among existing XR users rapidly and set the stage for a new XR use case with mass-market appeal.

Cutting-edge innovation is intrinsic to V-Nova's R&D and our technologies, concludes Meardi. At NAB, we will demonstrate how this groundbreaking format makes fully immersive entertainment experiences possible for the first time. By leveraging volumetric video technology, V-Nova PresenZ delivers cinematic-quality immersion without requiring real-time rendering, setting a new standard for storytelling.

The LCEVC showcase will be in the West Hall, Connect Area, booths W1252 and W1253. See V-Nova in W1454.
