L3 - Coding of Audio, Picture, Multimedia, and Hypermedia Information

  Group Description  
INCITS/L3 activities and project development are conducted at the international level for the standardization of coded representation of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia information - and of sets of compression and control functions for use with such information - such as: audio information, bi-level and limited bits-per-pixel still pictures; computer graphics images; moving pictures and associated audio, multimedia and hypermedia information for real-time final form interchange; and audio visual interactive scriptware.

The L3 working groups are:

* L3.1-MPEG Development Activity,
