Abstract
Disclosed herein is a transmitting method and a receiving method of point cloud data. The transmitting method may include encoding point cloud data, and transmitting a bitstream that includes the point cloud data and signaling information. The receiving method may include receiving a bitstream that includes point cloud data and signaling information, decoding the point cloud data, and rendering the decoded point cloud data.
Claims20
A point cloud data transmission method by an apparatus, the method comprising:
- encoding point cloud data;
- encapsulating a bitstream that includes the encoded point cloud data into a file according to an ISO base media file format (ISOBMFF);
- and
- transmitting the file,
- wherein the bitstream is stored in at least one of multiple tracks of the file, each track including a sample entry and a sample,
- wherein the file further includes signaling information,
- wherein the signaling information includes viewport-related information for the point cloud data,
- wherein the viewport-related information includes at least initial viewport-related information or dynamic viewport-related information that changes over time,
- wherein a track of the multiple tracks is a timed metadata track with a sample entry type of a value, the value indicating that the timed metadata track is for the viewport-related information,
- wherein the initial viewport-related information is carried through a sample entry of the timed metadata track, and
- wherein the dynamic viewport-related information is carried through a sample of the timed metadata track.
A point cloud data transmission apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
- an encoder for encoding point cloud data;
- an encapsulator for encapsulating a bitstream that includes encoded point cloud data into a file according to an ISO base media file format (ISOBMFF);
- and
- a transmitter for transmitting the file,
- wherein the bitstream is stored in at least one of multiple tracks of the file, each track including a sample entry and a sample,
- wherein the file further includes signaling information,
- wherein the signaling information includes viewport-related information for the point cloud data,
- wherein the viewport-related information includes at least initial viewport-related information or dynamic viewport-related information that changes over time,
- wherein a track of the multiple tracks is a timed metadata track with a sample entry type of a value, the value indicating that the timed metadata track is for the viewport-related information,
- wherein the initial viewport-related information is carried through a sample entry of the timed metadata track, and
- wherein the dynamic viewport-related information is carried through a sample of the timed metadata track.
A point cloud data reception apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
- a receiver for receiving a file of an ISO base media file format (ISOBMFF);
- a decapsulator for decapsulating the file into a bitstream that includes encoded point cloud data, wherein the bitstream is stored in at least one of multiple tracks of the file, wherein each track includes a sample entry and a sample, wherein the file further includes signaling information, and wherein the signaling information includes viewport-related information for the point cloud data;
- a decoder for decoding the encoded point cloud data;
- and
- a renderer for rendering the decoded point cloud data based on the viewport-related information,
- wherein the viewport-related information includes at least initial viewport-related information or dynamic viewport-related information that changes over time,
- wherein a track of the multiple tracks is a timed metadata track with a sample entry type of a value, the value indicating that the timed metadata track is for the viewport-related information including a sample entry and a sample,
- wherein the initial viewport-related information is carried through a sample entry of the timed metadata track, and
- wherein the dynamic viewport-related information is carried through a sample of the timed metadata track.
A point cloud data reception method by an apparatus, the method comprising:
- receiving a file of an ISO base media file format (ISOBMFF);
- decapsulating the file into a bitstream that includes encoded point cloud data, wherein the bitstream is stored in at least one of multiple tracks of the file, wherein each track includes a sample entry and a sample, wherein the file further includes signaling information, and wherein the signaling information includes viewport-related information for the point cloud data;
- decoding the encoded point cloud data;
- and
- rendering the decoded point cloud data based on the viewport-related information,
- wherein the viewport-related information includes at least initial viewport-related information or dynamic viewport-related information that changes over time,
- wherein a track of the multiple tracks is a timed metadata track with a sample entry type of a value, the value indicating that the timed metadata track is for the viewport-related information,
- wherein the initial viewport-related information is carried through a sample entry of the timed metadata track, and
- wherein the dynamic viewport-related information is carried through a sample of the timed metadata track.
