HIGH-LEVEL SYNTAX FOR GEOMETRY-BASED POINT CLOUD COMPRESSION

Abstract:

An apparatus configured for point cloud compression may be configured to code a first syntax element indicating a number of bits used to encode one or more second syntax elements, wherein the one or more second syntax elements indicate one or more of an offset of a bounding box, an origin point of the bounding box, a size of the bounding box, or a number of unique segments. The apparatus may code the first syntax element using an exponential Golomb code. The apparatus may further code the one or more second syntax elements using a fixed length code based on the number of bits indicated by the first syntax element, and code the point cloud based on the decoded one or more second syntax elements.
