Abstract
Disclosed is an electronic device including a memory that stores at least one command associated with an image encoding and a processor electrically connected to the memory. The command executed while the processor is operated divides a content generation buffer allocated in association with a specified content generation into a plurality of partial areas, stitches a previous image and a present image with respect to at least a portion of an area in which the present image overlaps with the previous image, and performs a parallel encoding on each of the partial areas of the stitched images in a specified block size when the stitched images are stored in the content generation buffer.
Claims21
An electronic device comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor electrically connected to the memory, wherein the processor is configured to:
- store a first image in a content generation buffer in the memory, wherein the content generation buffer is divided into a plurality of partial areas;
- perform parallel encoding, in a specified block size, on a first set of partial areas corresponding to the stored first image;
- based on an operation that stitches the first image and a second image with respect to at least a portion of an area in which the second image overlaps with the first image, store at least part of the second image in the content generation buffer, wherein the at least part of the second image corresponds to an area of the second image that does not overlap with the first image;
- perform parallel encoding, in the specified block size, on a second set of partial areas corresponding to the stored at least part of the second image;
- and
- obtain an image based on the first set of partial areas and the second set of partial areas in the content generation buffer by ignoring stored at least one rows of the first set of partial areas that are not adjacent to stored rows of the second set of partial areas.
An image processing method by a processor of an electronic device, the method comprising:
- storing a first image in a content generation buffer in a memory, wherein the content generation buffer is divided into a plurality of partial areas;
- performing parallel encoding, in a specified block size, on a first set of partial areas corresponding to the stored first image;
- based on an operation that stitches the first image and a second image with respect to at least a portion of an area in which the second image overlaps with the first image, storing at least part of the second image in the content generation buffer, wherein the at least part of the second image corresponds to an area of the second image that does not overlap with the first image;
- and
- performing parallel encoding, in the specified block size, on a portion of a second set of partial areas corresponding to the stored at least part of the second image;
- and
- obtain an image based on the first set of partial areas and the second set of partial areas in the content generation buffer by ignoring stored at least one row of the first set of partial areas that are not adjacent to stored rows of the second set of partial areas.
