MPEG-I: Geometry-based Point Cloud Compression

Standard: MPEG-I
Part: 9

Editions

Edition - 1: Geometry-based Point Cloud Compression

Publication Year: 0
Status: ongoing
Motivations: Due to the increased popularity of augmented and virtual reality experiences, the interest in capturing the real world in multiple dimensions and in presenting it to users in an immersible fashion has never been higher. Distributing such representations enables users to freely navigate in multi-sensory 3D media experiences. Such representations require a large amount of data, not feasible for transmission on today’s networks. Efficient compression technologies well adopted
Objectives: This standard completes the second approach proposed (the Geometry-based PCC) by compressing efficiently sparse point clouds

Edition - 2: Geometry-based Point Cloud Compression
