AREA OF INTEREST PROCESSING OF VIDEO DELIVERED TO HANDHELD DEVICE
First Claim
1. A method for processing a video stream intended for a remote wireless device, the method comprising:
- receiving the video stream;
identifying an area of interest corresponding to at least one video frame of the video stream;
processing video frames of the video stream based upon the identified area of interest to produce an output video stream; and
transmitting the output video stream for delivery to the remote wireless device.

Abstract
Processing a video stream intended for a remote wireless device by a video processing system based upon identified area of interest information to produce an output video stream having lesser required data throughput. Operation commences with receiving the video stream and buffering the video stream. Then the video processing system identifies an area of interest corresponding to at least one video frame of the video stream. The video processing system the processes the video frames of the video stream based upon the identified area of interest to produce an output video stream. The video processing system then transmits the output video stream for delivery to the remote wireless device. Processing video frames of the video stream may include altering pixel resolution, color resolution, and/or cropping video information of the video frames outside of the area of interest.
