Abstract
A method of decompressing image data. A VQ encoded image is received and decoded. Output image color space processing is performed in conjunction with the decoding. Output image color space processing may include color transformation, half-toning or both.
Claims12
A method of decompressing image data, the method comprising:
- a) receiving a VQ encoded image;
- b) decoding the VQ encoded image;
- and
- c) performing output image color space processing in conjunction with the decoding.
1 more element
An article including instructions in machine-readable form that, when executed, cause the machine to:
- a) receive a VQ encoded image;
- b) decode the VQ encoded image;
- and
- c) perform output image color space processing in conjunction with the decoding.
1 more element
A VQ decoder, comprising:
- a) at least one input path operable to receive VQ-encoded data;
- b) a lookup table operable to provide output values for a given input value;
- c) a processor operable to receive the VQ-encoded data and access the lookup table to acquire output values;
- and
- d) at least one output path operable to allow the processor to transmit the output values for further processing.
