Recently, with the development of three-dimensional scanning devices and multi-dimensional array cameras, research is continuously conducted on techniques for handling three-dimensional data in application fields such as AR (Augmented Reality) / VR (Virtual Reality) and autonomous traveling. In particular, in the AR / VR field, content that expresses 3D video as point data has appeared, but this requires a larger amount of data than conventional 2D images. Therefore, in order to serve 3D point cloud content to users, various technological developments such as highly efficient encoding / decoding and storage, transfer, etc. are required. In this paper, V-PCC bit stream created using V-PCC encoder proposed in MPEG-I (MPEG-Immersive) V-PCC (Video based Point Cloud Compression) group, It is defined by the MPEG-DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP) standard, and provides to be composed of segments. Also, in order to provide the user with the information of the 3D coordinate system, the depth information parameter of the signaling message is additionally defined. Then, we design a verification platform to verify the technology proposed in this paper, and confirm it in terms of the algorithm of the proposed technology.

Point Cloud which is a cluster of numerous points can express 3D object beyond the 2D plane. Each point contains 3D coordinate and color data basically, reflectance or etc. additionally. Point Cloud demand research and development much higher effective compression technology. Video-based Point Cloud Compression (V-PCC) technology in development and standardization based on the established video codec. Despite its high effective compression technology, point cloud service will be limited by terminal spec and network conditions. 2D video had the same problems. To remedy this kind of problem, 2D video is using Scalable High efficiency Video Coding (SHVC), Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) or diverse technology. This paper proposed a density scalability method using SHVC codec in V-PCC.

In this paper, we propose a method to extract the features of five sensor-only facilities built as infrastructure for autonomous cooperative driving, which are from point cloud data acquired by LiDAR. In the case of image acquisition sensors installed in autonomous vehicles, the acquisition data is inconsistent due to the climatic environment and camera characteristics, so LiDAR sensor was applied to replace them. In addition, high-intensity reflectors were designed and attached to each facility to make it easier to distinguish it from other existing facilities with LiDAR. From the five sensor-only facilities developed and the point cloud data acquired by the data acquisition system, feature points were extracted based on the average reflective intensity of the high-intensity reflective paper attached to the facility, clustered by the DBSCAN method, and changed to two-dimensional coordinates by a projection method. The features of the facility at each distance consist of three-dimensional point coordinates, two-dimensional projected coordinates, and reflection intensity, and will be used as training data for a model for facility recognition to be developed in the future.

In this paper, two reconstructed point cloud sets with the information of 3D features are analyzed. For a certain 3D reconstruction of the interior of a building, the first image set is taken from the sequential passive camera movement along the regular grid path and the second set is from the application of the laser scanning process. Matched key points over all images are obtained by the SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transformation) algorithm and are used for the registration of the point cloud data. The obtained results are point cloud number, average density of point cloud and the generating time for point cloud. Experimental results show the necessity of images from the additional sensors as well as the images from the camera for the more accurate 3D reconstruction of the interior of a building.

Point cloud content is immersive content that represents real-world objects with three-dimensional (3D) points. In the process of acquiring point cloud data or encoding and decoding point cloud data, the resolution of point cloud content could be degraded. In this paper, we propose a method of progressively enhancing the resolution of sequential point cloud contents through inter-frame registration. To register a point cloud, the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm is commonly used. Existing ICP algorithms can transform rigid bodies, but there is a disadvantage that transformation is not possible for non-rigid bodies having motion vectors in different directions locally, such as point cloud content. We overcome the limitations of the existing ICP-based method by registering regions with motion vectors in different directions locally between the point cloud content of the current frame and the previous frame. In this manner, the resolution of the point cloud content with geometric movement is enhanced through the process of registering points between frames. We provide four different point cloud content that has been enhanced with our method in the experiment.

The point-cloud representation of an object is performed by scanning a space through a laser scanner that is extracting a set of points, and the points are then integrated into the same coordinate system through a registration. The set of the completed registration-integrated point clouds is classified into meaningful regions, shapes, and noises through a mathematical analysis. In this paper, the aim is the matching of a curved area like a cylinder shape in 3D point-cloud data. The matching procedure is the attainment of the center and radius data through the extraction of the cylinder-shape candidates from the sphere that is fitted through the RANdom Sample Consensus (RANSAC) in the point cloud, and completion requires the matching of the curved region with the Catmull-Rom spline from the extracted center-point data using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Not only is the proposed method expected to derive a fast estimation result via linear and curved cylinder estimations after a center-axis estimation without constraint and segmentation, but it should also increase the work efficiency of reverse engineering.

포인트 클라우드는 특정 개체 혹은 장면을 다수의 3 차원 포인터를 사용하여 표현하는 데이터의 표현 방식 중 하나로 3D 데이터를 정밀하게 수집하고 표현할 수 있는 방법이다. 하지만 방대한 양의 데이터를 필요로 하기 때문에 효율적인 압축이 필수적이다. 이에 따라 국제 표준화 단체인 Moving Picture Experts Group 에서는 포인트 클라우드 데이터의 효율적인 압축 방법 중 하나로 Video based Point Cloud Compression(V-PCC)에 대한 표준을 제정하였다. V-PCC 는 포인트 클라우드 정보를 Occupancy, Geometry, Texture 와 같은 다수의 2D 영상으로 변환하고 각 2D 영상을 전통적인 2D 비디오 코덱을 활용하여 압축하는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 V-PCC 에서 변환하는 Occupancy 의 정보를 활용하여 효율적으로 Texture 영상을 압축할 수 있은 방법을 소개한다. 또한 제안방법이 V-PCC 에서 약 1%의 부호화 효율을 얻을 수 있음을 보인다.

Due to the recent developments of attaining 3D contents by using devices such as 3D scanners, the diversity of the contents being used in AR(Augmented Reality)/VR(Virutal Reality) fields is significantly increasing. There are several ways to represent 3D data, and using point clouds is one of them. A point cloud is a cluster of points, having the advantage of being able to attain actual 3D data with high precision. However, in order to express 3D contents, much more data is required compared to that of 2D images. The size of data needed to represent dynamic 3D point cloud objects that consists of multiple frames is especially big, and that is why an efficient compression technology for this kind of data must be developed. In this paper, a motion estimation and compensation method for dynamic point cloud objects using 3D DCT is proposed. This will lead to switching the 3D video frames into I frames and P frames, which ensures higher compression ratio. Then, we confirm the compression efficiency of the proposed technology by comparing it with the anchor technology, an Intra-frame based compression method, and 2D-DCT based V-PCC.

포인트 클라우드 콘텐츠는 실제 환경 및 물체를 3 차원 위치정보를 갖는 점들과 그에 대응하는 색상 등을 획득하여 기록한 실감 콘텐츠이다. 위치와 색상 정보로만 이뤄진 3 차원 점으로 이뤄진 포인트 클라우드 콘텐츠는 확대하여 렌더링 할 경우 점과 점 사이의 간격이 벌어지면서 발생하는 구멍에 의해 콘텐츠 품질이 저하될 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 포인트 클라우드 확대 시 점들 간 간격이 벌어져 생기는 구멍에 대해 깊이정보를 활용한 역변환 기반 보간 방법을 통해 포인트 클라우드 콘텐츠 품질을 개선하는 방법을 제안한다. 벌어진 간격들 사이에서 빈 공간을 찾을 때 그 사이로 뒷면의 점들이 그려지게 되어 보간 방법을 적용하는데 방해요소로 작용한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 구멍이 발생하지 않은 시점에서 렌더링 된 영상을 사용하여 포인트 클라우드의 뒷면에 해당되는 점들을 제거한다. 다음으로 깊이 맵(depth map)을 추출한 후 추출된 깊이 값을 사용하여 뎁스 에지(depth edge)를 구하고 에지를 사용하여 깊이 불연속 부분에 대해 처리한다. 마지막으로 뎁스 값을 활용하여 이전에 찾은 구멍들의 역변환을 하여 원본의 데이터에서 픽셀을 추출한다. 제안하는 방법으로 콘텐츠를 렌더링 한 결과, 기존의 크기를 늘려 빈 영역을 채우는 방법에 비해 렌더링 품질이 평균 PSNR 측면에서 2.9 dB 향상된 결과를 보였다.
