Patent ID: 8578392

Claim:
An image-data-processing device for processing a first image data, comprising: an image processing chip, including: a data managing unit for receiving the first image data from an image sensor; an encoding module for generating a second image data based on the first image data received from the data managing unit; and a first memory including an encoding data for the encoding module to code the first image data based on the encoding data in order to generate the second image data; a second memory connected to the image processing chip, wherein the data managing unit is used for selectively storing the second image data in the first memory or the second memory based on a size of the second image data; a connection unit connected to the data managing unit and the second memory to establish a signal connection between the data managing unit and the second memory; an image display module for generating an image based on the second image data; and a communication interface connected to the data managing unit and the image display module, wherein the encoding module is used for transmitting the second image data to the image display module through the data managing unit and the communication interface; wherein the data managing unit includes a memory address corresponding to both the first memory and the second memory, a memory space of the second memory is greater than a memory space of the first memory; wherein the data managing unit includes a data compression module for compressing the second image data and storing the compressed second image data selectively in the first memory or the second memory; and wherein if the size of the second image data is larger enough, the data managing unit will store the second image data in the second memory instead of the first memory.
