An image transmission apparatus, a router and a plurality of terminals are provided in an image transmission system. The image transmission apparatus adds screening information to image data, and transmits to the router through a network. The router receives the image data from the image transmission apparatus, selects the image data including the screening information corresponding to a network environment of each transmission path, and transmits selected image data to the plurality of terminals through the transmission path. Thus, the image transmission apparatus does not need to transmit a plurality of image data having various data formats, thereby preventing an increase in network traffic. Additionally, each terminal can receive the image data most appropriate for its network environment.
A method of transmitting image data through a network including a router to a plurality of terminals, said method comprising the steps of:
A method of transmitting image data through a network including a router to a plurality of terminals, said method comprising the steps of:
An image transmission apparatus transmitting image data through a network including a router to a plurality of terminals, said image transmission apparatus comprising a screening-information adding unit adding screening information that is a standard of selecting the image data for each transmission path at the router, to the image data, and then transmitting the image data to the network.
A routing apparatus receiving image data from an image transmission apparatus through a network, and transmitting the image data to a plurality of terminals, said routing apparatus comprising a selecting and transmitting unit selecting the image data including screening information corresponding to a network environment of each transmission path, and transmitting selected image data to the plurality of terminals through said each transmission path.
An image transmission system comprising:
