Methods and systems for generating a volumetric two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional object

A system comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:
• identify a first component of a three-dimensional (3D) object that is to be presented to a user, the first component of the 3D object distinguishable from one or more other components of the 3D object;
• generate a first set of two-dimensional (2D) images depicting the first component of the 3D object from a first set of vantage points tailored to the first component by corresponding to faces of a virtual bounding box encapsulating the first component;
• identify, from among the first set of 2D images, a particular 2D image depicting the first component from a particular vantage point located internally within the 3D object;
• incorporate, within a 2D atlas image associated with the 3D object, each of the first set of 2D images except the particular 2D image identified as depicting the first component from the particular vantage point located internally within the 3D object;
• and
• provide the 2D atlas image to a volumetric rendering device configured to render, based on the 2D atlas image, a volumetric representation of the 3D object for presentation to the user.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, direct a processor of a computing device to:

• identify a first component of a three-dimensional (3D) object that is to be presented to a user, the first component of the 3D object distinguishable from one or more other components of the 3D object;
• generate a first set of two-dimensional (2D) images depicting the first component of the 3D object from a first set of vantage points tailored to the first component by corresponding to faces of a virtual bounding box encapsulating the first component;
• identify, from among the first set of 2D images, a particular 2D image depicting the first component from a particular vantage point located internally within the 3D object;
• incorporate, within a 2D atlas image associated with the 3D object, each of the first set of 2D images except the particular 2D image identified as depicting the first component from the particular vantage point located internally within the 3D object;
• and
• provide the 2D atlas image to a volumetric rendering device configured to render, based on the 2D atlas image, a volumetric representation of the 3D object for presentation to the user.
