Abstract
Hardware video encoding can lower the perceived latency for remote visualization. We have created a lightweight library that simplifies the use of NVIDIA's video compression hardware. We achieve overall latencies below 15ms with compression ratios of approximately 85:1. To verify its applicability in real world scenarios, we integrated our library into ParaView. This offloads the encoding within ParaView to the GPU and provides a 25x bandwidth reduction compared to existing image compression methods available in the tool.
