A New FEC Scheme for Real-time Transmission of High Definition Video over IP Network

Increasing the applicability of ubiquitous computing, minimizing energy consumption and hardware cost are mandatory in real world applications. In this paper we present our platform prototype for ubiquitous computing, which has been implemented based on commercial Bluetooth off-the-shelf components. It allows every object to be augmented with processing and communication capabilities in order to make them "smart". We validate our proposal by evaluating the trade-off between power consumption and performance of the experimental prototype.
