MPEG scope of work

Serve as responsible body within ISO/IEC for recommending a set of standards consistent with the Area of Work:

  • Efficient coding and compression of digital representations of light and sound fields, e.g.:
    • Conventional moving pictures (natural and computer-generated),
    • Multiview moving pictures
    • Immersive moving pictures (e.g. volumetric, light field, holographic)
    • Static and dynamic graphic objects (e.g. surfaces, point clouds)
    • Conventional Mono/Stereo/Multichannel audio
    • Immersive audio (e.g. spatial and sound fields)
  • Efficient coding and compression of other digital data e.g.:
    • Media-related metadata (e.g. for search and annotation applications)
    • Sensor and actuator data (e.g. Haptic, Olfactory)
    • Context data (e.g. user, environment)
    • Genomics data
    • Graphs (e.g. neural networks)
  • Support to digital information coding and compression, e.g.:
    • Media synchronization mechanisms
    • Multimedia storage and transport
    • Media presentation
    • Interaction data (e.g. multimodal)
    • Support for content management and protection, and privacy
    • System configuration support
    • Application-specific media combinations
    • Quality of Experience evaluation protocols and metrics
    • System performance metrics
