Abstract: The invention relates to a control system (32, 42) for activating an electric braking actuator (3), comprising a first device (19) for converting a manoeuvre of a body (1) that can be manoeuvred by a driver into a control instruction for activating the electric braking actuator, and a second device (31, 41) for converting a manoeuvre of the manoeuvrable body by the driver into a control instruction for activating the electric braking actuator. The invention is characterised in that the second device does not emit an instruction to activate the electric actuator as long as a threshold value of a parameter relating to the manoeuvrable body is not exceeded, but emits an instruction to activate the electric actuator independently of the value of the parameter as soon as the threshold value of the parameter is exceeded.

Abstract: A pixel block is compressed by providing a respective color component prediction for each pixel in the block. A difference between color components of two neighboring pixels is calculated and compared to a threshold. If the difference is smaller than the threshold, the prediction is calculated based on a first linear combination of the color components of these two neighboring pixels. However, if the difference exceeds the threshold, a second or third linear combination of the color components of the neighboring pixels is employed in the prediction. A guiding bit associated with the selected linear combination may be used. A prediction error is calculated based on the color component of the pixel and the provided prediction. The compressed block comprises an encoded representation of the prediction error and any guiding bit.
