POINT CLOUD DATA TRANSMISSION DEVICE, POINT CLOUD DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, POINT CLOUD DATA RECEPTION DEVICE, AND POINT CLOUD DATA RECEPTION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18034310 titled 'POINT CLOUD DATA TRANSMISSION DEVICE, POINT CLOUD DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, POINT CLOUD DATA RECEPTION DEVICE, AND POINT CLOUD DATA RECEPTION METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for transmitting point cloud data.

  • Point cloud data is a collection of points in a three-dimensional space that represent the shape and attributes of objects.
  • The method involves encoding the geometry data of the point cloud, which refers to the spatial coordinates of the points.
  • The attribute data of the point cloud, which includes additional information about the points such as color or intensity, is encoded based on the geometry data.
  • The encoded geometry data, encoded attribute data, and signaling data are then transmitted.
  • This method allows for efficient transmission of point cloud data, reducing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted.
  • By encoding the attribute data based on the geometry data, the method ensures that the attributes are correctly associated with the corresponding points.
  • The signaling data is likely used to facilitate the decoding and reconstruction of the point cloud data on the receiving end.


Original Abstract Submitted

A point cloud data transmission method according to embodiments may comprise the steps of: encoding geometry data of point cloud data; encoding attribute data of the point cloud data on the basis of the geometry data; and transmitting the encoded geometry data, the encoded attribute data, and signaling data.
