Moving JPEG

Moving JPEG

(graphics, compression)(M-JPEG) A compression technique formoving images which applies JPEG still image compressionto each frame of a moving picture sequence.

Play-back requires a machine capable of decompressing anddisplaying each JPEG image quickly enough to sustain therequired frame rate of the picture sequence.

There is no standard for Moving JPEG as with JPEG, but thereare JPEG compression chips (for example see Zoran) which are designed to work attelevision frame rates and resolutions.
