Abstract
An attention degree estimation section in a compression coding section of a server estimates an attention degree on the basis of contents indicated by a moving image generated by an image forming section, for each of unit regions produced by dividing a frame plane. A compression coding processing section compression-codes the moving image at a compression rate varied in the frame plane according to a distribution of the attention degrees. A communication section transmits compression-coded data to an image processing apparatus.
