Abstract
Systems and methods for ensuring that images are compressed in a format that may be decompressed at a speed that is acceptable to a particular user and/or viewing environment are disclosed herein.
Claims12
A method comprising:
- accessing, by a computing device including one or more computer processors configured with computer executable instructions, an image compressed using a first compression technique;
- determining, by the computing device and based on historical viewing speeds of a user, a threshold decompression speed;
- determining, by the computing device, whether the first compression technique provides at least the threshold decompression speed;
- and
- in response to determining that the first compression technique does not provide at least the threshold decompression speed:
- determining, by the computing device, a second compression technique that does provide at least the threshold decompression speed;
- recompressing, by the computing device, the image using the second compression technique;
- and
- initiating, by the computing device, storage of the image compressed using the second compression technique in an electronic memory.
6 more elements
A computing system comprising:
- a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing software instructions;
- and
- one or more hardware processors configured to execute the software instructions in order to cause the computing system to:
- access an image compressed using a first compression technique;
- determine, based on historical viewing speeds of a user, a threshold decompression speed;
- determine whether the first compression technique provides at least the threshold decompression speed;
- and
- in response to determining that the first compression technique does not provide at least the threshold decompression speed:
- determine a second compression technique that does provide at least the threshold decompression speed;
- recompress the image using the second compression technique;
- and
- initiate storage of the image compressed using the second compression technique in an electronic memory.
9 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to:
- access an image compressed using a first compression technique;
- determine, based on historical viewing speeds of a user, a threshold decompression speed;
- determine whether the first compression technique provides at least the threshold decompression speed;
- and
- in response to determining that the first compression technique does not provide at least the threshold decompression speed:
- determine a second compression technique that does provide at least the threshold decompression speed;
- recompress the image using the second compression technique;
- and
- initiate storage of the image compressed using the second compression technique in an electronic memory.
