Abstract
A system and method for reducing discontinuity of gray level in an image buffer memory is provided, which reduces N bits to (N−k) bits for each pixel on an input image, so as to save required memory and reduce discontinuity of gray level. The input image includes a plurality of pixels in a matrix. The method includes the steps of: selecting a plurality of interleaved pixels from the input image; adding a specific value of 2in the pixels selected; and deleting lower k bits for each pixel of the input image.
