Abstract
Due to rapid development of mobile communication terminals and various requests of their users, multimedia information including image information has been the basis of mobile communication contents. In order to use vectored image information efficiently, which is more favorable than bit-mapped image information when transmission delay time and costs are considered, efficient vector graphics supporting systems are needed. Therefore, vector graphics kernel systems have been proposed and standardization attempts have been made in order to increase interoperability. In this paper, a vector graphics kernel based on OpenVG is designed and implemented. OpenVG was proposed as a standard vector graphics kernel by Khronos Group recently. The implemented vector graphics kernel, named by alexVG, is developed on a PC emulator as well as on a development board equipped with an ARM processor. In addition, performance tests are made in order to verify its functions.
