Abstract

See full text

An image processing system including a reconfiguration circuit, typically responding to fault detection. The image processing includes a data compressing unit for compressing image data generated by an image input terminal, a data storage unit for storing output compressed image data, a data decompressing unit for decompressing compressed data and for transferring the decompressed data to an output terminal. A control unit controls the system to compress and store image data, and then to repeatedly read out and transfer the stored data to the image output terminal. When a self diagnosis detects a fault in any one of the compressing unit, data storage unit, or data decompressing unit, the faulty unit is bypassed with a special data bus, thereby allowing system operating to continue.
