Digital Utilities Ventures, Inc. has two wholly owned subsidiaries- Digital Utilities, Inc. and American Telepath International, Inc.
Through its subsidiary, Digital Utilities, Inc., Digital Utilities Ventures, Incorporated has designed an efficient real-time video transport system for the Internet because of the strict bandwidth, loss and time constraints and the lack of quality of service (QoS) guarantees from the present IP networks. The company presents an end-to-end system architecture based on the MPEG-4 Delivery Multimedia Integration Framework (DMIF) for transporting real-time live video over the Internet. The key features of the system include: (1) MPEG-4 DMIF-based terminal architecture; (2) combination of an end-to-end feedback control mechanism and a rate-adaptive encoding algorithm for the best use of the Internet; (3) a robust and efficient packetization scheme for the MPEG-4 bit-stream by using the resynchronization marker approach specified in the MPEG-4 standard; and (4) efficient error control algorithms adopted at the end systems for visual quality enhancement. The company has demonstrated our method in many parts of the World and results using the actual Internet showed that our system is capable of utilizing the available network resource and achieve good perceptual quality at the application level. Over the last three years, the Company has expanded its product offering to the Television, Mobile phone, and the Computer. The Company continues to be focused on new markets and new product offerings.
