The future of video streaming - Training AI to see with the human eye - Techerati

The latest research from Cisco says that global internet traffic will reach 4.8 zetabytes a year in 2022, or 150,700 gigabytes a second. That research was published before the current coronavirus pandemic, which may well have a dramatic change in the shape and per-type breakdown of global internet traffic as face-to-face meetings are being overwhelmingly replaced with video conference calls and live video streaming. For example, NAB, the biggest event of the year in media production and distribution, has recently announced it will switch to a virtual conference for the 2020 year, with live presentations and meetings taking place via video streamed over the web. We are all aware of the bandwidth issues and contention that can pose a risk for internet connections. This is particularly true for video transfer over IP because of its need for sustained and consistent data rates and for low-latency packet delivery.
