Abstract
Video encoding methods for battery-powered apparatus are provided. The power level of a battery is detected. One picture type/picture size/picture rate among multiple picture types/picture sizes/picture rates is determined contingent upon the power level. The picture is encoded with the determined picture type/picture size/picture rate.
Claims27
A video encoding method for battery-powered apparatus, comprising:
- detecting a power level within a battery;
- determining one picture type among a plurality of picture types contingent upon the power level detected within the battery for a picture to be encoded;
- and
- encoding the picture with the determined picture type.
A system capable of encoding video data, comprising:
- a battery;
- a detection unit coupled to the battery and detecting the power level within the battery;
- and
- an encoder coupled to the detection unit, determining one picture type among a plurality of picture types contingent upon the detected battery power level for a picture to be encoded, and encoding the picture with the determined picture type.
A video encoding method for battery-powered apparatus, comprising:
- detecting the power level within a battery;
- determining one picture size among a plurality of picture sizes contingent upon the detected battery power level for a picture to be encoded;
- and
- encoding the picture with the determined picture size.
A system capable of encoding video data, comprising:
- a battery;
- a detection unit coupled to the battery and detecting the power level within the battery;
