Abstract
Digital image data compression apparatus includes a controller circuit for receiving digital image data and for processing the image data into blocks. The controller circuit supplies processed image data to a plurality of transform circuits and to a feeder circuit. The transform circuits receive data from the controller circuit and the feeder circuit, and provide parallel processing to compare blocks of image data and generate fractal transform values representing the image data in a compressed form.
