Abstract

An improved imaging system (40) and method for providing increased viewer control over the operating parameters of the imaging system (40) is disclosed.
Viewer control is facilitated by including a backchannel (72) within the imaging system (40), whereby a viewer may adjust spatial and temporal resolution, quantization and other operating parameters of the video transmission.
