    Abstract: A data coder prepares a frame of data for transmission over a data channel. The frame is first broken into a series of non-overlapping blocks. The blocks are analyzed to determine if they are a “picture” block or a “non-picture” block. Picture blocks are compressed to produce one or more layers of data, including a base layer and, optionally, one or more enhanced layers. Non-picture blocks are similarly compressed, but according to different compression procedures. Prior to sending the compressed layers of data to a scheduler for transmission on the data channel, the blocks are checked to see if they have changed more than a threshold amount from the last time they were sent. If the block has changed more than the threshold, the changed block is sent to the scheduler, in compressed form. If the block has not changed more than the threshold, only an indication of the block, and not the block itself, is sent to the scheduler.

    Abstract: Compressing and decompressing techniques for transformation matrices 3D computer graphics systems use to animate objects achieve high compression ratios by taking advantage of common characteristics of homogenous 3D transformation matrices. The techniques use a bitmap to encode information on locations of ones and zeros of the matrix—bypassing the penchant of compilers to represent such information as high-precision numbers. Since most video game processors and display hardware are constrained by their resolutions and since an original transformation matrix often stores data that is more accurate than necessary, the techniques convert some real numbers in the matrix (e.g., those within the range of −1 and 1) into integers by scaling them by a constant. The resulting compressed matrices occupy much less storage space than their non-compressed counterparts, and can be efficiently decompressed in real time for use in interactive real time 3D animations.
