This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240404112 titled 'SMOOTH VIDEO/IMAGE SIGNAL COMPRESSION

Original Abstract Submitted

various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that enable compression of two-dimensional (2d) map-based video content. for example, a process may obtain (2d) data sets corresponding to different attributes of three-dimensional (3d) content. each of the 2d data sets may provide attribute values for locations within a common 2d coordinate system that associates the attribute values for the different attributes with respective portions of the 3d content. the process may further generate a single 2d image by combining the 2d data sets. the attribute values corresponding to the different attributes may be combined with the single 2d image. the process may further encode the single 2d image into a specialized format for transmission or storage.
