Attribute Layers And Signaling In Point Cloud Coding - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18653180 titled 'Attribute Layers And Signaling In Point Cloud Coding

The patent application describes a video coding mechanism that involves receiving a bitstream containing coded sequences of point cloud coding (PCC) frames representing various PCC attributes such as geometry, texture, reflectance, transparency, and normal, each represented by PCC network abstraction layer (NAL) units.

  • The mechanism processes a bitstream with coded sequences of PCC frames.
  • Each coded PCC frame represents different PCC attributes like geometry, texture, reflectance, transparency, and normal.
  • The coded PCC frames are represented by PCC network abstraction layer (NAL) units.
  • The innovation enables efficient coding and decoding of point cloud data with multiple attributes.
  • This mechanism enhances the representation of complex point cloud scenes in video applications.
