<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain high-efficiency encoding at zooming. <P>SOLUTION: The video encoder adaptively selects the size of a unit area from among the sizes of the plurality of kinds of unit areas, calculates the movement information for each selected unit area, and encodes video data through the use of the calculated movement information. While imaging equipment is performing zooming operation, it selects a unit area smaller than that when zooming operation is not performed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT</p> |
