Objects can be rendered in three dimensions and viewed and manipulated in an augmented reality environment. A number of object images, a number of segmentation masks, and an object mesh structure are used by a client device to render the object in three dimensions. The object images and segmentation masks can be sequenced into frames. The object images and segmentation masks can be partitioned into patches and sequenced, or ordered, within each patch, and a keyframe can be assigned in each patch. Then, the object images and segmentation masks can be encoded into video files and sent to a client device. The client device can quickly retrieve a requested object image and segmentation mask based at least in part on identifying the keyframe in the same patch as the object image and segmentation mask.

Compression of multi-dimensional object representations

Active script can be provided with content to be displayed on a computing device to determine whether advertising, intended to be displayed with the content, is actually displayed by the computing device. The script can examine various aspects of the code used to render the content, to determine whether ad-blocking software is blocking the ad or something is otherwise preventing the advertising from being displayed. Information about the visibility of the advertising can be sent to a location such as a logging service, which can store the data until such time as the data is to be retrieved and processed, such as to determine an extent to which client devices are blocking ads to be displayed with content.
