A new 3-D segmentation-based coding technique is proposed for transmitting the motion video with reasonablly acceptable quality even at a very low bit rate. Only meaningful motion areas are extracted by using two change detection masks and a current frame is directly segmented rather than a difference frame itself so that a good quality of image can be obtained at high compression ratios. Through the experiments, the sequence of Miss America is reconstructed with visually acceptable quality at the very high compression ratio of 360:1.
