Abstract
A transmission and reception system, in which during transmission a background picture and objects #to #are transmitted at a transmission rate of R/4 each. On the reception side, a picture composed of the objects #to #and the background picture is displayed with a particular spatial resolution and a particular temporal resolution. When the object #is dragged at a particular time t, on the transmission side, the transmission of the background picture and the objects #and #is stopped. Only the object #is transmitted at the transmission rate of R of the transmission path. Thus, a picture of which the spatial resolution of the object #dragged is improved at the sacrifice of the temporal resolution of the picture.
