Aware, Inc, in Cambridge MA, is putting their wavelet compression technology in silicon. They shown examples of 25:1 and 50:1 720x486 x 30 frame/sec compression at my seminar series. An intersting aspect on their approach is to do this with 3D wavelets (ie time is explicitly being a dimension compressed).
