Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour comprimer des informations image à l'aide d'une estimation de mouvement. Des vecteurs de mouvement (v) représentant le mouvement d'une image instantanée par rapport à l'image précédente sont ensuite générés sur la base de ladite estimation de mouvement. Le degré de mouvement contenu dans le décalage entre l'image instantanée et l'image précédente est évalué en fonction des vecteurs de mouvement (v), et la définition d'image est ensuite réglée en fonction de l'évaluation du de gré de mouvement. La définition d'image est réduite pour des mouvements rapides et accrue pour des mouvements lents. Le nombre d'intervalles de quantification ou bien de certains paramètres de filtrage pour préfiltrer les informations image peut être ajusté par exemple en fonction du degré de mouvement déterminé.
