Traditional image compression techniques, such as JPEG and PNG, face challenges in achieving optimal performance for constrained environments due to their reliance on handcrafted algorithms and limited adaptability. This study investigates the use of deep learning models for image compression tailored to embed systems, focusing on encoder and decoder architectures. By leveraging convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and variational auto encoders (VAEs), we design lightweight models capable of achieving high compression ratios while maintaining visual fidelity. The research emphasizes computational efficiency, ensuring compatibility with the resource constraints of embedded hardware. Key contributions include the development of streamlined architectures optimized for low memory and power usage, along with a comprehensive evaluation of compression quality, reconstruction accuracy, and real-time performance. The results demonstrate that deep learning-based approaches can outperform traditional methods in terms of adaptability and efficiency, paving the way for their integration into next-generation embedded systems. 2025 37 52 3434 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 10.54216/JISIoT.150104 https://americaspg.com/journal/18/article/3434 https://americaspg.com/storage/21735356514.pdf
