convert rgb 3D matrix to 2D

hey,

im working on my final project and in my project im doing image processing using FPGA.

im using matlab to transmit and recieve to the FPGA.

i need to transmit an image matrix data, and due to lack of memory on my Altera i cant send 3 seperate matrices (R,G,B). i need to send 1 matrix that is already calculated the whole RGB values, without going to gray scale. i need the image to stay colourful.

is it possible to do such a thing? or if you have any other ideas.

thanks,

Eldad
