Abstract
An image sensor module, an image processing device, and an image compression method receive pixel values of a target pixel group to be compressed in the image data and reference values of reference pixels to be used for compression of the target pixel group, generate a virtual reference map by applying an offset value to each of the reference values, compress the pixel values of the target pixel group based on the virtual reference map, and generate a bitstream based on a compression result and compression information based on the virtual reference map.
