<p>An image processing apparatus and an image processing method that reduce data transmission time by transmitting data between internal memories of a codec without passing through a system memory. Reducing the number of accesses to the system memory increases processing speed, and reduces the load of a main processor, when image data is to be encoded or decoded. The apparatus includes: an image processor processing sensing data input from various sensors and generating image data; a first codec encoding or decoding the image data using a first encoding method and generating encoded data or decoded data; a second codec encoding or decoding the image data using a second encoding method and generating encoded data or decoded data; a system memory storing the image data, the encoded data, and the decoded data; a main processor controlling the other components; and a router through which the image data is transmitted to the first codec or the second codec to encode the data, or through which the encoded data is transmitted between the first codec and the second codec.</p> |
