The Fujitsu LZ-3WS is a block-based, optical lossless compression and decompression system. The system is used to reduce the size of digital image data and video data for storage and transmission.
The LZ-3WS uses a combination of Huffman, Run Length Encoding (RLE) and Lempel-Ziv-based algorithms to achieve an extremely high compression rate, up to five times faster than the industry-standard JPEG. The system also features a very robust error correction algorithm, allowing low-quality images to still be effectively compressed.
The main benefits of using the LZ-3WS are that it can provide extremely high quality compression ratios without compromising on speed. It also supports a variety of formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, GIF, BMP, etc. The system is also highly scalable, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications.
