Video-Based Point Cloud Compression with Variable Patch Scaling

摘要

A system comprises an encoder configured to compress attribute information and/or spatial information for volumetric visual content and/or a decoder configured to decompress compressed attribute and/or spatial information for the volumetric visual content. The encoder is configured to convert a 3D representation of the visual volumetric content into a 2D image based representation. The encoder is further configured to scale the patch in 2D space independent of any scaling in 3D space. Auxiliary information is signaled for use in identifying 2D scaled or unscaled patches in an image frame, mapping the patches into 3D space, and adjusting for any scaling factors applied at the encoder.
