  • Method for processing omni-directional image using padding area and apparatus supporting the same
    Patent number: 11017598
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus is disclosed. The image processing apparatus comprises: a receiver configured to receive an input frame including a plurality of image regions, corresponding to a plurality of faces of a three-dimensional polyhedron, and metadata; and a processor configured to render an output frame including at least one a part of the input frame, on the basis of padding information included in the metadata. Here, the processor may be configured to identify, on the basis of the padding information, a padding region included in at least one of the plurality of image regions, and render, on the basis of the determined padding region, a boundary between at least one face of the plurality of faces and another face of the plurality of faces adjoining the at least one face of the polyhedron.
