Method of or device for processing image data, a processed image data format, and a method of or device for displaying at least one image from the processed image data
First Claim
1. A method of processing first image data representative of a first image and second image data representative of a substantially contemporaneous second image, comprising:
- processing stripes of the first image data sequentially;
processing stripes of the second image data sequentially;
outputting a first sequence of first data units interleaved with a second sequence of second data units, wherein each of the first data units represents a processed stripe of first image data and each of the second data units represents a processed stripe of second image data.

Abstract
A method of processing first image data representative of a first image and second image data representative of a substantially contemporaneous second image is described. The method comprises: processing stripes of the first image data sequentially; processing stripes of the second image data sequentially; outputting a first sequence of first data units interleaved with a second sequence of second data units, wherein each of the first data units represents a processed stripe of first image data and each of the second data units represents a processed stripe of second image data.

27. A method of displaying at least one image from a first sequence of first data units interleaved with a second sequence of second data units, comprising:
-
parsing input data comprising first data units and the second data units wherein each of the first data units represents a stripe of first image data and each of the second data units represents a stripe of second image data; and
using the parsed first data units and/or second data units to reproduce the first image and/or the second image. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30)

32. A device for displaying at least one image derived from a first sequence of first data units interleaved with a second sequence of second data units, comprising:
-
parsing means for parsing input data comprising first data units and the second data units wherein each of the first data units represents a stripe of first image data and each of the second data units represents a stripe of second image data; and
reproduction means for reproducing the first image and/or the second image using the parsed first data units and/or parsed second data units. - View Dependent Claims (33, 34, 35, 36, 37)
