  2. Advanced Video Coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Video_Coding

    The H.264 video format has a very broad application range that covers all forms of digital compressed video from low bit-rate Internet streaming applications to HDTV broadcast and Digital Cinema applications with nearly lossless coding. With the use of H.264, bit rate savings of 50% or more compared to MPEG-2 Part 2 are reported.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_yard_and_pound

    In the 1890s, Albert Michelson began conducting experiments in interferometry that led in 1903 to demonstrating the feasibility of using light waves as units of linear measurement. In 1908, two teams of researchers, one led by Michelson, defined the length of the international prototype meter in terms of light waves.

  5. Electricity meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_meter

    An electricity meter, electric meter, electrical meter, energy meter, or kilowatt-hour meter is a device that measures the amount of electric energy consumed by a residence, a business, or an electrically powered device over a time interval. Electric utilities use electric meters installed at customers' premises for billing and monitoring purposes.

  6. Automatic meter reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_meter_reading

    The meter transceiver and the reading transceiver both send and receive radio signals. In a one-way "bubble-up" or continuous broadcast type system, the meter transmits continuously and data is sent every few seconds. This means the reading device can be a receiver only, and the meter a transmitter only.

  7. Serial digital interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_digital_interface

    The various serial digital interface standards all use (one or more) coaxial cables with BNC connectors, with a nominal impedance of 75 ohms. This is the same type of cable used in analog composite video setups, which potentially makes for easier "drop in" equipment upgrades (though may be necessary for long runs at the higher bitrates for older oxidising or lower grade of cable to replaced ...

  9. Video-signal generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video-signal_generator

    A video signal generator is a type of signal generator which outputs predetermined video and/or television oscillation waveforms, and other signals used in the synchronization of television devices and to stimulate faults in, or aid in parametric measurements of, television and video systems. There are several different types of video signal ...
