Abstract
Disclosed is a system and associated methods for dynamically enhancing a three-dimensional (“3D”) animation that is generated from points of one or more point clouds. The system reduces noise and corrects gaps, holes, and/or distortions that are created in different frames as a result of adjusting the point cloud points to create the 3D animation. The system detects a set of points that share positional and/or non-positional commonality of a feature in the 3D animation. The system applies one or more adjustments to the set of points to animate feature from a current frame to a next frame, and detects a point from the set of points that deviates from the positional and/or non-positional commonality of the feature after applying the adjustments. The system dynamically enhances the 3D animation by correcting the point prior to rendering the next frame of the 3D animation.
