摘要:
A video codec that allows for improved performance of embedded devices using vector quantization and the high correlation between frames in a scene to reduce the overhead associated with displaying video data. Video coding includes determining scene changes in a movie, producing one codebook for each scene, and coding each frame within a scene with the same codebook. The quantized video data is then losslessly compressed and formed into a video stream. Video decoding includes decoding the codebook for a frame and supplying the codebook and frame indices for frame rendering. Alternatively, video coding also includes dividing CPU time between codebook processing, indices processing, and frame rendering to ensure smooth video output.
摘要:
Displays on embedded devices, such as cell phones, personal digital assistants, and game machines, typically have low color-depth resolution displays. The conversion of color image from high color-depth resolution formats, such as 24-bit per pixel color, to lower color-depth resolution formats for display on low color-depth resolution displays, such as those having 15-bit per pixel color, results in degraded image appearance, especially for 24-bit format images having gradual color changes. The present invention manipulates the color information of images or video sequences and improves the appearance of the display by dithering representations of the images in a color space having a luminance coordinate.
