compress the data of the image in a lossy manner for each of the display regions or for each of regions obtained by dividing the display regions.

3. The image processing system according to claim 2 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to

on a basis of a positional relationship between the display regions and the regions used as units of compression, distribute the data of the image to corresponding interfaces among a plurality of the second interfaces each provided for a corresponding one of the display regions.

4. The image processing system according to claim 2 , wherein processing circuitry is further configured to

decompress the data of the image for each of the display regions.

5. The image processing system according to claim 1 , wherein processing circuitry is further configured to

acquire information relating to a clock that determines a timing at which the data of the image is transmitted through the first interface and adjust a clock that determines a timing at which the image is displayed.

6. The image processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to

output the data of the image to the display without waiting for acquisition of the data of the image for one frame.

7. The image processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to

decrypt the data of the image that has been encrypted and acquired through the first interface and input the data of the image into the second interface.

8. The image processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to

determine control information for controlling a display panel in the display by analyzing the data of the image and transmit the control information to the display.

9. An image processing integrated circuit, wherein the image processing integrated circuit is configured to:

acquire data of an image that has been compressed and transmitted through a first interface, wherein the data of the image is compressed in units of each of regions determined based on a method of a display panel included in a display,

transmit the data of the image to the display panel through a second interface whose protocol is different from a protocol of the first interface, and

transmit the data of the image without decompressing the data of the image.

10. An image processing method performed by an image processing system, the image processing method comprising:

compressing data of an image to be transmitted through a first interface, wherein the data of the image is compressed in units of each of regions determined based on a method of a display panel included in a display;

relaying transmission of the data of the image from the first interface to a second interface with a different protocol; and

displaying the data of the image transmitted through the second interface,

wherein the data of the image is relayed without decompressing the data of the image, and

decompressing and displaying the data of the image.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

driving the display panel for each of display regions obtained by dividing a screen of the display panel into a plurality of regions; and

compressing the data of the image in a lossy manner for each of the display regions or for each of regions obtained by dividing the display regions.

12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

on a basis of a positional relationship between the display regions and the regions used as units of compression, distributing the data of the image to corresponding interfaces among a plurality of the second interfaces each provided for a corresponding one of the display regions.

13. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

decompressing the data of the image for each of the display regions.

14. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

acquiring information relating to a clock that determines a timing at which the data of the image is transmitted through the first interface and adjust a clock that determines a timing at which the image is displayed.

15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

outputting the data of the image to the display without waiting for acquisition of the data of the image for one frame.

16. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

decrypting the data of the image that has been encrypted and acquired through the first interface and input the data of the image into the second interface.

17. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

determining control information for controlling a display panel in the display by analyzing the data of the image and transmit the control information to the display.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-readable instructions thereon which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:

acquiring data of an image that has been compressed and transmitted through a first interface, wherein the data of the image is compressed in units of each of regions determined based on a method of a display panel included in a display; and

transmitting the data of the image to a display panel through a second interface whose protocol is different from a protocol of the first interface; and

wherein the data of the image is transmitted without decompressing the data of the image.
