APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING POINT CLOUD DATA, A METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING POINT CLOUD DATA, AN APPARATUS FOR RECEIVING POINT CLOUD DATA AND/OR A METHOD FOR RECEIVING POINT CLOUD DATA

摘要

In accordance with embodiments, a method for transmitting point cloud data includes generating a geometry image for a location of point cloud data; generating a texture image for attribute of the point cloud data; generating an occupancy map for a patch of the point cloud data; and/or multiplexing the geometry image, the texture image and the occupancy map. In accordance with embodiments, a method for receiving point cloud data includes demultiplexing multiplexing a geometry image for a location of point cloud data, a texture image for attribute of the point cloud data and an occupancy map for a patch of the point cloud data; decompressing the geometry image; decompressing the texture image; and/or decompressing the occupancy map.
