Abstract

Image signal processing including generating image signal processing based encoding hints for motion estimation may include an image signal processor obtaining an input image portion of an input image from the input image signal, generating motion information for the input image portion, processing the input image portion based on the motion information, outputting processed image data, and outputting the motion information as encoding hints, such that the motion information is accessible by an encoder for generating an encoded output bitstream by obtaining the processed image data as source image data, obtaining the motion information, generating prediction data for encoding the source image data based on the motion information, generating encoded image data based on the prediction data, and including the encoded image data in an encoded output bitstream.
