Abstract
Provided are an image sensor module, an image processing system, and an image compression method. The image compression method of compressing image data generated by an image sensor includes: receiving pixel values of a target pixel group of image data on which compression is to be performed, and reference values of reference pixels to be used in compression of the target pixel group; determining an averaging direction in which an averaging calculation is to be performed on target pixel values; averaging the pixel values of target pixels in the averaging direction; generating balance information including compensation values to be applied to the average values based on the reference pixels; and generating a bitstream based on the average values, the balance information, and compression information.
