Abstract

Recently, the emergence of 3D cameras, 3D scanners and various cameras including Lidar is expected to promote various 3D media applications such as AR, VR and autonomous mobile vehicles. The 3D media can be recently realized by not only 2D pixel and depth information but also points with texture and geometry information. In particular, 3D point cloud data is consisted of hundreds of thousands to millions of 3D points, and thus dramatically increases its data size compared to 2D media data, which brings up the development of an efficient encoding/decoding technology. Also, it is required to develop a scalability function such as Level of Detail (LoD) for both an effective service with different bandwidths, devices and Region of Interest (RoI). In this paper, we propose a new LoD quality parameter considering characteristics of 3D point cloud contents instead of bitrate change based on a video codec in MPEG Video-based Point Cloud Compression (V-PCC). Therefore, the use of LoD table proposed in this paper is confirmed to generate 3D point cloud contents with different point density.
