Abstract
A remote multiple image processing apparatus comprises a graphic processing unit, a memory unit, an image compression unit, a transmission unit and a transmission medium. The graphic processing unit receives at least an image frame including a plurality of image blocks, and determines the degree of the difference between the current input image block and the previous input image block. The memory unit, coupling to the graphic processing unit, stores the image blocks. The image compression unit, coupling to the memory unit, compresses the image blocks and generates at least a compressed datum. The transmission unit, coupling to the image compression unit, transforms the compressed datum into at least a data packet. The transmission medium outputs the data packet. The remote multiple image processing apparatus uses the compression technique to allow a client sharing the resources of graphic processing unit so as to get multiple use benefits.

14. A remote multiple image processing method, comprising:
-
receiving at least an image frame including a plurality of image blocks and determining the degree of the difference between the current input image block and the previous input image block wherein the current input image block and the previous input image block each comprise a color datum and a flag datum; updating the flag data and compressing the current input image block according to the flag data to generate a compressed datum when the color data of the current input image block and the previous input image block are different; transforming the compressed datum into a data packet and thereby outputting via a network cable or optical fiber. - View Dependent Claims (15)
