Abstract
A method for data compression includes reading first data representing sensor data capture, compressing the data with a lossless algorithm, transmitting the compressed data as a reference frame, reading subsequent data, calculating a delta between the first data and the subsequent data, compressing the data delta, and determining if the compression ratio of the compressed data delta is within a predetermined tolerance threshold. If the compression ratio is within the threshold, transmitting the compressed data delta frame, and repeating the calculating, compressing, and determining steps for subsequent data; Else if the compression ratio is not within the threshold, compressing the current subsequent data and transmitting the result as an updated reference frame. Then repeating the calculating, compressing, and determining steps for subsequent data. A system and a non-transitory computer-readable medium for implementing the method are also disclosed.
