Abstract

This image processing method for the conversion of an image with a first number of bits per pixel, for example 16 bits per pixel, into an image with a second number of bits per pixel, for example 18 bits per pixel, includes generating additional coding bit values for the components (Ri, Gi, Bi) of each pixel starting from the component values of adjacent pixels and generating the converted signal from the additional coding bits.
