Abstract: A system comprises an encoder configured to compress attribute information and/or spatial for a point cloud and/or a decoder configured to decompress compressed attribute and/or spatial information for the point cloud. To compress the attribute and/or spatial information, the encoder is configured to convert a point cloud into an image based representation. Also, the decoder is configured to generate a decompressed point cloud based on an image based representation of a point cloud. The encoder generates an occupancy map and may also encode the occupancy map as an image based representation. In some embodiments, a video encoder encodes image based representations of spatial information for the points of the point cloud, image based representations of attribute values for points of the point cloud, and an image based representation of an occupancy map for the spatial and attribute images.

Abstract: A system comprises an encoder configured to compress attribute information for a point cloud and/or a decoder configured to decompress compressed attribute information for the point cloud. To compress the attribute information, multiple levels of detail are generated based on an ordering of the points according to a space filling curve and attribute values are predicted. The attribute values may be predicted simultaneously while points are being assigned to different levels of detail. A decoder follows a similar prediction process based on level of details. Also, attribute correction values may be determined to correct predicted attribute values and may be used by a decoder to decompress a point cloud compressed using level of detail attribute compression. In some embodiments, attribute correction values may take into account an influence factor of respective points in a given level of detail on attributes in other levels of detail.

Abstract: A system comprises an encoder configured to compress attribute information and/or spatial for a point cloud and/or a decoder configured to decompress compressed attribute and/or spatial information for the point cloud. To compress the attribute and/or spatial information, the encoder is configured to convert a point cloud into an image based representation. Also, the decoder is configured to generate a decompressed point cloud based on an image based representation of a point cloud. A processing/filtering element utilizes occupancy map information and/or auxiliary patch information to determine relationships between patches in image frames and adjusts encoding/decoding and/or filtering or pre/post-processing parameters based on the determined relationships.

Abstract: In an example method, points that represent three-dimensional visual volumetric content are received, and patches are determined, where each patch corresponds to a respective portion of the visual volumetric content. A patch image representing a set of points corresponding to the patch projected onto a respective patch plane is generated for each patch. The patch images are packed into image frames, and the image frames are encoded. An occupancy map corresponding to the image frames is generated. The occupancy map indicates, for each image frame: locations of the patch images in the image frame, and depth information of sets of points corresponding to the patch images in the image frame. The depth information indicates, for each patch image, depths of the set of points corresponding to the patch image in a direction perpendicular to a patch plane of the patch image.

Abstract: A system comprises an encoder configured to compress attribute information for a point cloud and/or a decoder configured to decompress compressed attribute for the point cloud. To compress the attribute information, attribute values are predicted using one of a plurality of prediction strategies, wherein a selected prediction strategy is selected based at least in part on attribute variability of points in a neighborhood of points. A decoder follows a similar prediction process. Also, attribute correction values may be determined to correct predicted attribute values and may be used by a decoder to decompress a point cloud, wherein the decoder applies the same prediction strategy applied at the encoder.

Abstract: An encoder is configured to compress point cloud information using a blocks of nodes determined from a prediction tree. A prediction tree is generated for a point cloud. Segments of the prediction tree are identified. The segments are divided into blocks that are predicted by predecessor blocks within the segments. The blocks of the prediction tree may then be encoded and may be provided for transmission to a decoder that can regenerate the point cloud from the blocks of the prediction tree.

Abstract: A system comprises an encoder configured to compress and encode data for a three-dimensional mesh using a video encoding technique. To compress the three-dimensional mesh, the encoder determines sub-meshes and for each sub-mesh: texture patches and geometry patches. Also the encoder determines patch connectivity information and patch texture coordinates for the texture patches and geometry patches. The texture patches and geometry patches are packed into video image frames and encoded using a video codec. Additionally, the encoder determines boundary stitching information for the sub-meshes. A decoder receives a bit stream as generated by the encoder and reconstructs the three-dimensional mesh.
