Abstract: At least one embodiment relates to a method for smoothing (filtering) the geometry of a point cloud frame by performing an analysis and filtering of said geometry point cloud in a 2D space, without reconstruction of 3D samples in a 3D space, and by using a flexible filtering operator that, in addition to moving existing points, can also remove points or add new ones.

Abstract: A method and device for modifying attributes of one or more points of a 3D scene, the attributes comprising depth attribute and texture attribute stored respectively in a depth image and a texture image. To reach that aim, at least a first point of the 3D scene is identified, the at least a first point having depth information inconsistent with regard to depth information associated with a neighborhood of the at least a first point in the depth image. It is then determined whether the attributes of the at least a first point are correctable by analyzing neighborhood of the at least a first point in the depth image and in the texture image. For each first point having correctable attributes, the attributes stored in the depth image and/or texture image are modified according to the neighborhood in the depth image and/or in the texture image.
