Low power consumption lossless image compression algorithm and its application in water strider robot vision system

Abstract

The emergence of miniature robot makes micro vision sensing system become a hot topic in the field of scientific research. The main task of miniature visual sensor system is image acquisition and wireless transmission, but image transmission occupied the main part of the energy consumption. In order to reduce power consumption cause by wireless image -transmitting, it is necessary to compress image data. In this paper, based on MSP430 series low-power chips, we designed two modified image compression algorithm based on LZW and RLE algorithm and carry out experimental verification and comparative analysis on water strider robot vision system .
