We released an online demo of our extreme video completion method. Our technology is very energy and time-efficient on the encoder side (we require practically 0 computation and no specialized hardware like typical DCT-based encoders), it can reach extreme compression rates with complete rate flexibility and can achieve better visual reconstruction at these rates compared with the MPEG-4 H264 standard. This makes it ideal for instance for video-transmitting IoT devices, surveillance cameras, drone transmission, or emergency deployment transmission where bandwidth is very limited. Users can visualize different results and test with their own videos too on: adefan.epfl.ch For the more technically curious readers, we have an associated publication in the leading signal processing conference IEEE ICASSP that can be accessed here: https://infoscience.epfl.ch/record/277003/

The information regarding licensing opportunities and contact information can be found on our demo website. Feel free to contact the authors to ask about the latest developments around this technology.
