Abstract :
The growing amount of information transferred and stored in graphical and video format, and the forthcoming of new devices that have a limited hardware capabilities to either store data or display shades (such as electronic paper), creates a demand for higher computational resources or new techniques that consume less of these resources. In this paper is proposed a new method for video coding called Video Colortoning, which reduces the size of the image representation in a sequence of color image, with a small loss of quality and in real time. The proposed method treats the problem of quantization noise and the flicker effect, optimizes the data for further compression and considers the human visual system regarding the handling of colors.
