Apparatus and system to multiplex data on a plurality of digital frame images into data on one frame and to encode and transmit the data

摘要

An image transmitting apparatus includes input terminals, first frame buffers corresponding to the input terminals, a write controlling portion, a read clock generating portion, a read controlling portion, an image compressing portion, and an image transmitting portion. The image transmitting apparatus inputs data on digital frame images of one frame captured with video cameras and synchronous signals synchronized with the data on the digital frame images, respectively, within a predetermined period of time; processes the data including multiplexing and compressing the data; and outputs the data on the digital frame images encoded by the image compressing portion.
