Future-proof your device for data-centric AI

your data, fit for AI

AI/ML perception systems must be robust, efficient, and adaptable across environments. Using raw images, instead of those processed for human vision, allows engineers to set precise tolerances, optimizing resources while maximizing performance.

Image compression could tackle these, but, currently impose limitations:

WHY RAW FOR AI

Preserves critical data information
Artifact-free
Pre-processing flexibility

Jetraw Core —The first high-ratio image compression with RAW quality control

Jetraw Core is in-camera RAW compression combining the size of lossy formats with the reliability and quality of lossless technologies.

It applies lossless compression to the signal component, following image preparation with lossy compression of the noise. This achieves the highest ratio and the highest quality output on the market.

HOW WE DO IT

Jetraw turns data into measurement by embedding a custom noise model 

based on the sensor’s physical properties. This enables image quality validation and optimization for AI/ML.
