Abstract
A system which correlates across multiple images to find commonalities among the images and compresses according to those commonalities. The commonalities can be across multiple different images which are unrelated. The information is quantized according to the client that will display the images, and then, and luminance in common color areas are encoded as a single encoding. A WAP application may also be downloaded.
Claims11
A method, comprising:
- sending a request for an image or video to a server, from a portable phone;
- also sending specific information about the portable phone to the server;
- receiving a compressed version of said image or video, on the portable phone, said compressed version being specific to both the portable phone and about characteristics of the carrier and where said application is specific to different quantization values for color and luminance for the specific portable phone, and defines first quantization values for a first portable phone and second quantization values for a second different portable phone, and where said quantization values comprise values to which said color and luminance areas will be quantized, even when said values in an area to be quantized are not exactly the same;
- receiving an application which can decompress the data, where said application is specific to both the portable phone and about characteristics of the carrier;
- receiving from the server over a cellular connection, instructions to send said image or video to another phone among said plurality of phones that is located within the local area of said portable phone, via a different channel than the channel on which said image or video was received;
- Decompressing the compressed version of said image or video using said application;
- and
- sending said image or video to said another phone that also requests said image via a Bluetooth connection.

A method, comprising:
- receiving a request for data to be sent to a portable phone over a carrier;
- determining specific information about the portable phone, and about the carrier;
- and
- based on said specific information, compressing the data, and sending the data and also sending an application which can decompress the data, where said application is specific to both the portable phone and about characteristics of the carrier and where said application is specific to different quantization values for color and luminance for the specific portable phone, and defines first quantization values for a first portable phone and second quantization values for a second different portable phone, and where said quantization values comprise values to which said color and luminance areas will be quantized, even when said values in an area to be quantized are not exactly the same;
- and
- wherein said application is usable to decompress the information.
