  • Patent number: 11120623
    Abstract: A system and method for processing volumetric video is disclosed. The process includes receiving three-dimensional mesh data and texture data defining three-dimensional and textural characteristics of a physical location captured as volumetric video, dividing the three-dimensional mesh data into sub-parts defining a mesh tile, each mesh tile making up only a portion of the three-dimensional mesh data, and identifying a sub-part of the texture data defining a texture tile, the texture tile corresponding to each of the sub-parts of the mesh tiles and including only texture data relevant to an associated mesh tile. The volumetric video may be encoded by encoding each mesh tile independent of the three-dimensional mesh data as a mesh tile video and each texture tile independent of the texture data as a texture tile video.

  • Patent number: 11025882
    Abstract: A method for compressing geometric data and video is disclosed. The method includes receiving video and associated geometric data for a physical location, generating a background video from the video, and generating background geometric data for the geometric data outside of a predetermined distance from a capture point for the video as a skybox sphere at a non-parallax distance. The method further includes generating a geometric shape for a first detected object within the predetermined distance from the capture point from the geometric data, generating shape textures for the geometric shape from the video, and encoding the background video and shape textures as compressed video along with the geometric shape and the background geometric data as encoded volumetric video.

  • Patent number: 10692246
    Abstract: There is disclosed a system and method for encoding and decoding a geometry sequence. The method includes performing intraframe and interframe comparisons of geometry within the geometry sequence, selecting one or more faces as index faces and encoding only the index faces, and the differences relative to those index faces as a bit stream for transmission. The method further includes enabling decoding of the faces based upon the prediction type and encoding method selected during the encoding process.

  • Publication number: 20200143583
    Abstract: A system and method for selecting a cloud render service for performing rendering from among a plurality of geographically distributed cloud render services based, at least in part, upon a latency between the device and the plurality of geographically distributed cloud render services; instructing the cloud render service to utilize a compute node for rendering the volumetric video; and rendering of the volumetric video on the compute node. The rendering includes receiving positional tracking data from the device indicating a perspective of a viewing device on the volumetric video; rendering a selected volumetric video from the perspective; and generating a two-dimensional video stream to correspond to the perspective of the selected volumetric video.

  • Patent number: 10469820
    Abstract: There is disclosed a system and method for streaming of volumetric three-dimensional video content. The system includes a separate rendering server and display device such that the rendering server receives pose and motion data from the mobile device and generates completed frames of video for the mobile device. The frames of video are transmitted to the mobile device for display. Predictive algorithms enable the rendering server to predict display device pose from frame-to-frame to thereby reduce overall latency in communications between the rendering server and display device.
