<p>An image is grouped into levels of blocks of pixels, each particular level, except a top level, providing a subdivision of each block of pixels of a next higher level into a respective matrix of blocks of pixels of that particular level. An image source transfers pixel values of all of the pixels to an image receiver like a display device on a block by block basis. The blocks in each respective matrix are transferred consecutively without intervening transfer of pixel values of pixels from other blocks from the same level. This renders possible interchangeable use of image receivers with mutually different resolutions, without requiring a change in the way the pixel values are transferred and without requiring a memory in the image receiver for pixel values that are transferred between the pixel values for one block.</p> |
