<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for transmitting an image which determines the presence of an input video signal from a camera by software for an image transmitting device which uses a Motion-JPEG image compression method but cannot mount a dedicated circuit to determine the presence of an input video because of restrictions by product specifications, a circuit configuration, manufacturing costs, etc. <P>SOLUTION: The image transmitting device has an image compression circuit and a transmitting circuit, and transmits an image. The image compression circuit inputs a video signal and outputs the input video signal after image compression, and the transmitting circuit transmits the compressed image by converting it into transmitting data. Whether the size of the compressed image is smaller than a specified value is determined, and information on the determination is added to the image to be transmitted. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
