TECHNIQUES FOR LOW POWER IMAGE COMPRESSION AND DISPLAY

摘要

Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for reducing the consumption of electric power in rendering an image onto a display associated with a computing device by generating and compressing difference frames for use in rendering the image. A device to compress video frames includes a processor component; and a frame buffer compressor for execution by the processor component to compress a current frame of a series of frames as a compressed difference frame, the compressed difference frame comprising a difference frame that indicates a difference in pixel color of at least one pixel between the current frame and a preceding adjacent frame of the series of frames. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
