In an encoding system for use with video signals, the velocity of a subject between two frames is estimated and used to predict the location of the subject in a succeeding frame. Differential encoding between this prediction and the actual succeeding frame are used to update the prediction at the receiver. As only the velocity and the updating difference information need be transmitted, this provides a reduction in the communication channel capacity required for video transmission. The scheme may be implemented by comparing the intensities of points in consecutive frames, identifying those points having a significant frame to frame intensity difference as part of the moving subject, determining an estimated velocity of the identified subject, predicting the present frame by translating a portion of the previous frame by the estimated velocity (the translated portion forming the identified subject), and transmitting the updating difference between the actual and predicted present frames along with the predictive velocity information.
