THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA ENCODING METHOD, THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA DECODING METHOD, THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA ENCODING DEVICE, AND THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA DECODING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18513919 titled 'THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA ENCODING METHOD, THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA DECODING METHOD, THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA ENCODING DEVICE, AND THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA DECODING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The three-dimensional data encoding method described in the abstract involves performing motion compensation on multiple encoded point clouds, merging them to create a reference point cloud, generating an N-ary tree structure of a current point cloud, and encoding the N-ary tree structure using the reference point cloud.

  • Motion compensation is applied to encoded point clouds.
  • The motion-compensated point clouds are merged to form a reference point cloud.
  • An N-ary tree structure is created for the current point cloud.
  • The N-ary tree structure is encoded using the reference point cloud.

Original Abstract Submitted

A three-dimensional data encoding method includes: performing motion compensation on a plurality of encoded point clouds; merging the plurality of encoded point clouds that have been motion compensated to generate a reference point cloud; generating an N-ary tree structure of a current point cloud, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2; and encoding the N-ary tree structure of the current point cloud using the reference point cloud.
