Visual database system
First Claim
1. A visual database system for storing and transmitting visual data representing at least one of moving images and still images, said system comprising:
- at least one visual data input device which inputs the visual data;
a visual database device which receives and stores the visual data input by said visual data input device; and
at least one visual data output device which receives the visual data at a predetermined resolution from said visual database device, and displays and prints the visual data, wherein said visual database device divides the visual data into a plurality of block screens, appends a first address to each of the division block screens, then further divides the block screens identified by the first addresses, appends a second address to each of the division block screens, and thereafter repeats the division and appending of addresses for a predetermined number of times, said visual database device expresses the visual data as addresses and image data of a divided image represented by the addresses and stores the address; and
said visual database device creates the visual data for output in accordance with a resolution of said visual data output device and transmits the created data to said visual data output device.
