Abstract
A system and method for processing volumetric video is disclosed. The process includes receiving three-dimensional mesh data and texture data defining three-dimensional and textural characteristics of a physical location captured as volumetric video, dividing the three-dimensional mesh data into sub-parts defining a mesh tile, each mesh tile making up only a portion of the three-dimensional mesh data, and identifying a sub-part of the texture data defining a texture tile, the texture tile corresponding to each of the sub-parts of the mesh tiles and including only texture data relevant to an associated mesh tile. The volumetric video may be encoded by encoding each mesh tile independent of the three-dimensional mesh data as a mesh tile video and each texture tile independent of the texture data as a texture tile video.
