INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17963346 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that acquires polygon data representing the shape of an object and geometry data related to higher-resolution polygon data. It then outputs encoded data including the geometry data and topology data of the lower-resolution polygon data.

  • The invention is an information processing apparatus for handling polygon data.
  • The apparatus acquires first polygon data representing the shape of an object.
  • It also acquires geometry data related to higher-resolution polygon data.
  • The apparatus encodes the acquired data, including the geometry data and topology data of the lower-resolution polygon data.
  • The encoded data can be used for various applications in computer graphics, virtual reality, and 3D modeling.

Potential Applications

  • Computer graphics rendering and animation
  • Virtual reality environments and simulations
  • 3D modeling and design software
  • Gaming and interactive entertainment
  • Architectural visualization and planning

Problems Solved

  • Efficient handling of polygon data with varying resolutions
  • Encoding and storing geometry and topology data for objects
  • Streamlining data processing for computer graphics applications
  • Enhancing the realism and detail of virtual environments

Benefits

  • Improved efficiency in handling polygon data
  • Higher resolution and more detailed object representations
  • Enhanced realism and accuracy in computer graphics and virtual reality
  • Streamlined data processing and storage for 3D modeling and design


Original Abstract Submitted

The information processing apparatus (encoding apparatus) that acquires first polygon data representing a shape of an object, acquires geometry data relating to geometry of second polygon data whose resolution is higher than that of the first polygon data, and outputs encoded data including the geometry data and topology data relating to the first polygon data.
