Abstract

This method for up-sampling a point cloud representing a 3D object, comprises: —detecting (2) points belonging to at least one under-sampled region of the point cloud on the basis of at least one desirable sampling rate (K); —obtaining (12), for each detected point, an associated tangent plane; —inserting (14) in the point cloud at least one neighboring point of each detected point if a distance between the neighboring point and the tangent plane associated with the detected point is less than a first threshold.
