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

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17968882 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a format for volumetric video that allows for efficient selective drawing of specific objects. The format includes volumetric video data consisting of frames with object shape data and tracking information. Metadata is generated based on the tracking information to associate objects and shape data in each frame.

  • Volumetric video format for efficient selective drawing of specific objects
  • Volumetric video data includes frames with object shape data and tracking information
  • Metadata is generated based on tracking information to associate objects and shape data in each frame
  • Output includes volumetric video data with metadata

Potential Applications

  • Virtual reality and augmented reality experiences
  • Gaming and interactive media
  • Film and television production

Original Abstract Submitted

An object is to provide a format of a volumetric video with which it is possible to efficiently perform selective drawing of a specific object. Volumetric video data consisting of a sequence of frames, each frame including object shape data and tracking information indicating a change of each object between frames, each object corresponding to the shape data, are obtained. Then, based on the tracking information, metadata that associates each of the objects and the shape data in each frame is generated and the volumetric video data including the metadata is output.
