Allegro DVT’s E2xx family of silicon proven IPs is a highly optimized video encoding solution targeted at ASIC implementations in a wide range of process node technologies down to 3nm. It provides support for mainstream image and video formats including JPEG, H.264, HEVC, VP9 and AV1, at up to 8K resolutions.
Beamr’s patented, Emmy® award-winning CABR engine enables reducing the bitrate of video streams encoded by any standard video encoder, including the latest AV1 codec, by up to 50% without compromising perceptual quality. The reduced-bitrate streams remain fully standards-compliant, and can be decoded by any standard video decoder.
“For the past decade, Beamr’s CABR software solutions have enabled optimized video compression for our customers, resulting in an improved viewing experience, reduced network congestion, and lower TCO”, said Sharon Carmel, Founder & CEO of Beamr. “When developing our silicon IP implementation, we’ve found Allegro’s video encoders to be the perfect partner for integration, due to their superior video quality, high performance, and support for the latest video codecs. By integrating our CABR Silicon IP library with Allegro’s video encoders, we are now bringing the optimization benefits to ASIC providers, who can utilize them in all video applications from video surveillance and IoT to 8K live broadcasting, low latency cloud gaming and more.”
Nouar Hamze, Allegro DVT’s CEO commented: “The dramatic increase of video usage is forcing the industry to consider HW based video encoding solutions to control implementation complexity and cost. The integrated Allegro DVT E2xx/Beamr CABR solution provides our common customer base with the most advanced ASIC-ready option to further improve video compression efficiency. The combined solution is immediately available for evaluation through a bit-accurate software simulation model.”

ROYC and Stilla Enter Strategic Partnership to Operationalise Agentic AI in Private Markets26.5.2026 11:30:00 EEST | Press release
ROYC today announced a partnership with Stilla.ai as the platform layer where ROYC will create, share and run its internally developed AI skills and agents. This operationalises the agentic AI strategy ROYC set out earlier, equipping every function across the company with the tools and resources to build and deploy their own AI agents and converting this into measurable productivity gains and accelerated product development. This will substantially accelerate launch of new platform features, improving cost efficiency at the same time as strengthening overall governance and oversight. For ROYC’s customers and partners, the result will be shorter time-to-market for new product releases, shorter time frames moving from idea to productification and tailored customer experience from an investor services perspective. “Our strategy is clear: AI is embedded in every aspect of our ways of working and what the ROYC Operating System does, not a side project,” said Peter Bergenwald, CTO of ROYC. “
