COST-DRIVEN FRAMEWORK FOR PROGRESSIVE COMPRESSION OF TEXTURED MESHES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18160847 titled 'COST-DRIVEN FRAMEWORK FOR PROGRESSIVE COMPRESSION OF TEXTURED MESHES
Simplified Explanation
The patent application discusses techniques for compressing level of detail (LOD) data.
- LOD data compression involves sharing a texture image LOD among different mesh LODs for single-rate encoding.
- This means that a first texture image LOD can be created by refining a second texture image LOD.
- Sharing is possible when texture atlases of LOD meshes are compatible.
Original Abstract Submitted
Techniques of compressing level of detail (LOD) data involve sharing a texture image LOD among different mesh LODs for single-rate encoding. That is, a first texture image LOD corresponding to a first mesh LOD may be derived by refining a second texture image LOD corresponding to a second mesh LOD. This sharing is possible when texture atlases of LOD meshes are compatible.
