- nayuki 2y agoAccording to their video ( https://vimeo.com/502475794/ffbfb82b15 https://vimeo.com/502475794/ffbfb82b15 ), the company patented bit plane image storage. What the heck? That is so obvious and shouldn't be patentable. On a side note, they keep touting how robust their data archival solution is. But I have my doubts. For example, if an image has a big patch of 0 or 1 bits, then it might be impossible to accurately align the bit positions ("reclocking"); this is the same issue with QR codes and why they have a masking (scrambling) technique. Another problem is that their format doesn't seem to mention error correction codes; adding Reed-Solomon ECC is an essential technique in many, many popular formats already.
