Volume video encoding methods, volume video encoding equipment, volume video decoding methods, and volume video decoding equipment

Abstract

At least one proposed method and device for encoding volumetric video representations of scenes, where this encoding is based on fragments representing the color and depth of 2D projections of parts of the scene, in which the first fragment is encapsulated within the second fragment for a certain period of time less than or equal to the time that the second fragment is encapsulated within the first fragment for that period. The invention also proposed a method and equipment for decoding.
