Abstract
Disclosed is an encoder for encoding images, the encoder having a processor configured to obtain colour data of colour channels of a given image and velocity data of a velocity channel of the given image, wherein the colour data and the velocity data respectively comprise colour values and velocity vectors of pixels of the given image; identify a plurality of groups of neighbouring pixels in the given image, wherein pixels of a given group have at least one of: velocity vectors that lie within a predefined threshold angle from each other, velocity vectors whose magnitude lie within a predefined threshold value from each other; divide the colour data and the velocity data of the given image into their own respective blocks, based on the identified plurality of groups; and encode the blocks into encoded data.
