Download the photos in an instant!
JPEG2000 will be on the market within a few months, a standard that allows you to download images hundreds of times faster than now from the Internet. Innovation has come hand in hand with researchers from the University of Arizona, Michael Marcellin, and the University of New South Wales in Australia, David Taubman, and since its appearance in the early 1990s, it has been the first major novelty that has been made to the JPEG format.
The JPEG format compresses images, making it the most widely used format for sending images by email or downloading them from the Internet. In return, the image loses some quality. According to the researchers, the JPEG2000 standard will allow to compress images 50-100% more than today, without producing pixelations or losing quality.
JPEG2000 allows you to download in a few seconds the image that the JPEG system would download in 10 hours with a 56 Kbps modem. And the JPEG2000 standard does not lower all the information, but what we need at all times. The extension of the new standard compression is jp2 and in order to use it, browsers need a new plug-in that is now available for free on the Internet. The manual is also available.
