Abstract :
A previously proposed intelligent-pixel mobile multimedia communicator (IPM3C) integrates the capture, coding and display of optical images into a single array of pixel processors. The real-time video processing required both for compression of the captured images and decompression of the received data stream presents a significant challenge for the required pixel based coding. This paper outlines a massively parallel wavelet based video codec designed for implementation on the intelligent pixel array capable of fulfilling the very-low-bit-rate coding requirements for M3C
