Immervision, the Montreal-based developer and licensor of patented, wide-angle optics and imaging technology, today announced new real-time video distortion correction algorithms making videos the same as we see with our human eyes. The algorithms are available for mobile OEMs to license now from Immervision’s exclusive distribution partner CEVA. The addition of these new algorithms to Immervision’s broad imaging processing software portfolio will enhance the differentiation OEMs can deliver in next-generation phones.

In phones, the wider field of view (FOV) creates more apparent distortion. The algorithms from Immervision fix stretched bodies, curved lines, object and face proportions in real-time adjusting to the scene without any postprocessing required - all in one solution. Immervision provides different levels of correction, varied projections and real-time adaptation to the scene and supports OEMs creating a differentiated experience.

“Video recording on phones is skyrocketing and software is needed to create the ideal framing for high-quality videos. The Immervision team has worked with customers over 20 years to solve their most difficult imaging problems and create innovative user experiences in devices,” said Alessandro Gasparini, Executive Vice President, Operations and Chief Commercial Officer of Immervision. “Our hardware and software experts at Immervision provide a unique perspective, working closely with OEMs to fine tune the algorithms to meet their distinct needs. Our new algorithms help deliver 20/20 vision in a range of smartphones, correcting distortions in real-time in videos to improve the capture to display experience, without compromising the field of view.”

Key Features of Algorithms

  • Adaptive distortion control for videos
  • Correct perspective distortion
  • Preserve face and body proportions
  • Capture more of scenes with less distortion
  • Correct line and object distortion
  • Perfectly match the algorithm to lens distortion

Xsolla, a global commerce company, today announced the launch of Game Biz Institute (GBI), an editorial platform where named industry practitioners and researchers examine the commercial layer of games: direct-to-player distribution, payments, monetization, user acquisition, and retention. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260827362663/en/ Graphic: Xsolla Game design has a curriculum. The business of games does not. Engines, pipelines, production, and narrative are taught at hundreds of universities, while the commercial machinery that determines whether good work becomes a durable company is still learned through expensive trial and error, usually after the decisions that mattered have already been made. GBI was built to close that gap by publishing what practitioners have actually learned running these businesses. "Game developers have never had more data and less clarity," said Chris Hewish, President of Xsol
