Abstract
The AV1 video compression format is developed by the Alliance for Open Media consortium. It achieves more than 30% reduction in bit-rate compared to its predecessor VP9 for the same decoded video quality. This paper provides a technical overview of the AV1 codec design that enables the compression performance gains with considerations for hardware feasibility.
